Why was there such a far-reaching consensus concerning the utopian
goal of national homogeneity in the first half of the twentieth
century? Ethnic cleansing is analyzed here as a result of the
formation of democratic nation-states, the international order
based on them, and European modernity in general. Almost all
mass-scale population removals were rationally and precisely
organized and carried out in cold blood, with revenge, hatred and
other strong emotions playing only a minor role. This book not only
considers the majority of population removals which occurred in
Eastern Europe, but is also an encompassing, comparative study
including Western Europe, interrogating the motivations of Western
statesmen and their involvement in large-scale population removals.
It also reaches beyond the European continent and considers the
reverberations of colonial rule and ethnic cleansing in the former
British colonies.
