A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

William D. Rubinstein is at the University of Aberystwyth and has written The Myth of Rescue: Why the Democracies Could Not Have Saved More Jews from the Nazis (Routledge, 1997).

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Many people believe that we live in an ‘age of genocides’. William

D. Rubinstein provides a unique chronological account of genocide down the

ages, ranging from infamous mass murders directed by Hitlwer, Stalin and Pol Pot through

to slaughters virtually unknown today, such as the Taiping

rebellion in China and the appalling mass killings

in Paraguay during the 1860s.

 

Challenging existing definitions, opinions, and statistics, Genocide's

gripping historical narrative and original arguments make it thought-provoking

and stimulating read.
