Genocide
A Comprehensive Introduction
Adam Jones, University of British Columbia
Okanagan, Canada
Genocide: A Comprehensive
Introduction is the most
wide-ranging textbook on
genocide yet published. The
book is designed as a text for
upper-undergraduate and
graduate students, as well as a
primer for non-specialists and
general readers interested in
learning about one of
humanity’s enduring blights.
Fully updated to reflect the
latest thinking in this rapidly
developing field, this new edition:
• provides an introduction to genocide as both a
historical phenomenon and an analytical-legal concept,
including an extended discussion of the concept of
genocidal intent, and the dynamism and contingency
of genocidal processes
• discusses the role of state-building, imperialism, war,
and social revolution in fueling genocide
• supplies a wide range of full-length case studies of
genocides worldwide, each with an accompanying
box-text
• explores perspectives on genocide from the social
sciences, including psychology, sociology,
anthropology, political science/international relations,
and gender studies
• considers ’The Future of Genocide,’ with attention to
historical memory and genocide denial; initiatives for
truth, justice, and redress; and strategies of
intervention and prevention.
Written in clear and lively prose, liberally sprinkled with
over 100 illustrations and maps, and including personal
testimonies from genocide survivors, Genocide: A
Comprehensive Introduction has established itself as the
core textbook of the new generation of genocide
scholarship. An accompanying website (www.
genocidetext.net) features a broad selection of
supplementary materials, teaching aids, and Internet
resources.
