Reviews
“The essays reflect a range of disciplinary perspectives and approaches, including history, sociology, psychology, journalism, international relations, and law, unified around a theme of genocide prevention … . Contributions vary from the theoretical, to the descriptive, to the practical based on personal experiences. The book is thus likely to appeal to a wide audience interested in engaging with both theoretical and practical perspectives on the dynamics of genocide and what we might focus upon in order to prevent its recurrence.” (Joanna Kyriakakis, Criminal Law and Philosophy, Vol. 10, 2016)
