Genocide and gross human rights violations in comparative perspective
by Kurt Jonassohn
Genocide and Gross Human Rights Violations offers actual studies of genocide in India, China, Colonial Africa, the Soviet Union, Burma, and the former Yugoslavia. Beyond narrating the most horrendous atrocities, the book focuses on the nature of gross human rights violations and genocides, and how best to stop them. Jonassohn formulates a typology that distinguishes events that have different origins, occur in different situations, and follow different processes.
This work is motivated by the hope that it might be possible to reduce the number of genocides and to intervene in those that do occur.
