Massacre and atrocity in the ancient and pre-modern eras -- pt. 2. The colonial frontier -- pt. 3. Contested narratives : memory, atrocity and massacre -- pt. 4. The dynamics of modern massacre and mass killings.Massacres and mass killings have always marked if not shaped the history of the world and as such are subjects of increasing interest among historians. The premise underlying this collection is that massacres were an integral, if not accepted part (until quite recently) of warfare, and that they were often fundamental to the colonizing process in the early modern and modern worlds. Making a deliberate distinction between 'massacre' and 'genocide', the editors call for an entirely separate and new subject under the rubric of 'Massacre Studies', dealing with mass killings that are not genocidal War and genocide ;v. 11.MassacresHistoryCongressesMass murderHistoryCongressesAtrocitiesHistoryCongressesElectronic books.MassacresHistoryMass murderHistoryAtrocitiesHistory303.609Dwyer Philip G857401Ryan Lyndall1943-857402MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910452331503321Theatres of violence1914340UNINA
