Understanding Atrocities helps us to think âabout how we think
about the past,â and doesnât offer easy passe-partouts for
unlocking or framing humanityâs monstrous history and its
representation. Instead, this book provides insightful and
necessary roadmaps for our encounters with the demonic events
themselves, as well as the vectors and exchanges that process our
memory. -Piet Defraeye, University of Alberta, Universiteit
Antwerpen
Understanding Atrocities is a welcome addition to genocide and
atrocities scholarship that introduces new voices, approaches, and
topics to a growing global field of research. The well-chosen
chapters are perfect illustrations of the breadth and dynamism of
contemporary genocide studies. -Andrew Woolford, University of
Manitoba, author of This Benevolent Experiment: Indigenous Boarding
Schools, Genocide and Redress in North America
[This book] provides a window into the urgent, complex, and
interdisciplinary dialogues underway in Genocide Studies. - Jobb
Arnold, Peace Research
