"Horrifyingly, acts of mass violence may be proliferating in ways we don’t anticipate or fully understand. This interdisciplinary volume is timely and significant, engaging innovative approaches that inform and unsettle the evolving field of Genocide Studies to better analyze our complex times."
— Eve Darian-Smith, professor and chair of global and international studies, University of California, Irvine
"In this paradigm-shifting collection, Jeffrey Bachman assembles authors who are prepared to transcend the boundaries of conventional thinking about genocide. What the 'destruction of nations' means in the age of climate change, pandemics, machine-driven killing, and other challenges to the existence and flourishing of humans is radically rethought in Genocide Studies: Pathways Ahead."— A. Dirk Moses, author of The Problems of Genocide: Permanent Security and the Language of Transgression
"Genocide Studies: Pathways Ahead challenges us to reconsider the nature of violence and to reimagine the concept of genocide itself. By pushing scholars beyond traditional discussions of mass atrocity, the authors envision bold new directions for the future of genocide studies in a rapidly changing world."— Lindsey Kingston, director of the Institute for Human Rights and Humanitarian Studies at Webster University, St. Louis
“Genocide Studies: Pathways Ahead reads like a truly cohesive, consistently excellent collection, a rarity for edited volumes. The range and the theoretical boldness of its chapters is laudable, as is its multi-disciplinary character. A Ph.D. student contributes an illuminating chapter on new, alternative forms of genocidal violence, while a renowned and prolific expert offers insights into the relation of COVID to genocide; yet another chapter confronts climate change mass violence—indeed, each chapter offers something bold and thought-provoking. Genocide Studies is exactly the sort of book that our rapidly expanding field needs about once a decade, in order to take stock and chart fresh directions.”— John Cox, author of To Kill a People: Genocide in the Twentieth Century
"True to its title, Genocide Studies: Pathways Ahead maps out a vibrant and constantly expanding field, signposting new directions for those seeking a deeper understanding of genocide and interdisciplinary approaches to studying it. By illuminating underexplored avenues of research by some of the most exciting scholars working on these issues, this volume illustrates just how rich genocide studies has become…and how much more work there is to be done."— Kerry Whigham, author of Resonant Violence: Affect, Memory, and Activism in Post-Genocide Societies
