Wittner; Index; About the ContributorsTracing the course of conflicts throughout Asia in the past century, this groundbreaking volume is the first to explore systematically the nexus of war and state terrorism. Challenging states' definitions of terrorism, which routinely exclude their own behavior, the book focuses especially on the nature of Japanese and American wars and crimes of war. This rare comparative perspective examines the ways in which state terror leads to civilian casualties, war crimes, and crimes against humanity. In counterbalance, they discuss anti-war movements and international efforts to protect human rights.War and peace library.State-sponsored terrorismAsiaHistory20th centuryAsiaHistory, Military20th centuryAsiaHistory20th centuryUnited StatesHistory, Military20th centuryJapanHistory, Military20th centuryElectronic books.State-sponsored terrorismHistory950.4/1Selden MarkSo Alvin Y.1953-MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910455638903321War and state terrorism1940557UNINA
