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:
• drovides 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.

New Directions in Genocide
Research
Adam Jones, University of British Columbia
Okanagan, Canada
This edited books seeks to
capture the range of new
approaches, theories and
case studies in the field of
genocide studies. It unfolds
in three sections:
• The first section focuses on
broad theories of comparative
genocide, including a number
of different perspectives.
• The second section critically
reconsiders core themes of genocide studies, including
humanitarian intervention and the role of bystanders;
and unfolds a range of challenging new directions,
including the forcible transfer of children as a
genocidal strategy, cultural genocide, the art and
architecture of genocide, gender and genocide,
structural violence, and the novel application of
remote-sensing technologies to the detection and
study of genocide.
• The third and final section is case-study focused,
seeking to place both canonical and little-known cases
of genocide in broader comparative perspective. Cases
analyzed include genocide in North America, the Nazi
Holocaust, the Rwandan genocide of 1994, and the
Indonesian genocide of 1965-66.
The combination of cutting-edge scholarship and
innovative approaches to familiar subjects makes this
essential reading for all students and scholars in the
field of genocide studies.

The International Politics
of Mass Atrocities
The Case of Darfur
Edited by David R. Black, Dalhousie University,
Canada and Paul D. Williams, George Washington
University, USA
Series: Security and Governance
’This is an excellent volume:
well-conceived, designed,
researched and written;
represents the very best
of case-specific scholarship
on the difficult (issue) of
collective responses to
genocidal conflict; (N)icely
integrates IR theory and
the details of this particular
case. The study blends well
broader concerns such as
the existence and capacity
of an ’international society’ and the tenaciously
problematic case of Darfur. It gives the international
response to Darfur a clear yardstick and we gain real
insights into the challenges of the context and the
failures of a robust and effective international
response.’ – Tim Sisk, University of Denver, USA
