What elements of contemporary American life contribute to the
United States having the greatest number and highest share of
public mass shootings around the globe? The editors and
contributors to All-American Massacre seek to answer this question
by exploring how masculinity, racism, politics, media, fame,
education, gun culture, and mental health influence the causes of
mass shootings in the United States. With a specific focus on
exploring how American culture, institutions, and social structures
influence the circumstances, frequency, and severity of mass
shootings in the United States, All-American Massacre advances
emerging theoretical perspectives and forges fresh approaches, new
research questions, and innovative data and conclusions. Bringing
together pioneering scholars, this groundbreaking compilation of
research and analysis identifies the social roots of this insidious
threat and prompts new reflections on how we can stop the seemingly
endless cycle of horror and death.All-American Massacre helps
clarify the unique nature and salience of mass shootings in
American life. Contributors: Melanie Brazzell, Tristan Bridges,
