Rhoda E. Howard-Hassmann, Canada Research Chair in International Human Rights, Wilfrid Laurier University, Canada.
The burgeoning field of genocide studies brings together disciplines in the social sciences and humanities, united in their fascination with the causes and consequences of mass atrocity and in their determination to put it to an end. Leading thinkers in the field wrestle with the contemporary debates about prevention and intervention in this useful, compact volume edited by two of the field’s eminent scholars.
William Schabas, Professor of international law, Middlesex University, UK.
Apsel and Verdeja have assembled an impressive lineup of scholars, who ask pointed questions and attempt comprehensive answers. An engaging commentary on the field of studies in a state of flux.
Anton Weiss-Wendt, Center for the Study of the Holocaust and Religious Minorities, Oslo, Norway.
Wide-ranging in scope, conceptually innovative, and boldly transgressing disciplinary boundaries, this outstanding collection opens up new perspectives on how to approach the terrifying phenomena subsumed under the rubric of genocide. This landmark contribution is a tribute to the discernment of the editors and the cutting-edge scholarship of the contributors. Few other works offer such a wide range of conceptual and theoretical breakthroughs in the field of comparative genocide.
Rene Lemarchand, Emeritus Professor of Political Science, University of Florida, USA.
