Zusammenfassung:Introduction -- Definitional conundrums : a sociological approach to genocide -- The genocide-ecocide nexus -- Palestine / with Haifa Rashed -- Sri Lanka / with Vinay Prakash -- Australia -- Tar sands and the indigenous peoples of northern Alberta / with Jennifer Huseman -- Looking to the future : where to from here? -- Conclusion.
"In this highly controversial and original work, Damien Short systematically rethinks how genocide is and should be defined. Rather than focusing solely on a narrow conception of genocide as direct mass-killing, through close empirical analysis of a number of under-discussed case studies - including Palestine, Sri Lanka, Australia and Alberta, Canada - the book reveals the key role played by settler colonialism, capitalism, finite resources and the ecological crisis in driving genocidal social death on a global scale."--Publisher's website
