Displacement has been treated as a corollary practice to crimes committed, not a central aspect of their perpetration. Destroying Them Gradually examines four cases that illuminate why perpetrators have destroyed populations using displacement policies: Germany’s genocide of the Herero (1904–1908); Ottoman genocides of Christian minorities (1914–1925); expulsions of Germans from East/Central Europe (1943–1952); and climate violence (twenty-first century). Because displacement has been typically framed as a secondary aspect of mass atrocities, existing scholarship overlooks how perpetrators use it as a means of executing destruction rather than a vehicle for moving people to a specific location to commit atrocities.Genocide, Political Violence, Human Rights SeriesAtrocitiesCrimes against humanityForced migrationGenocideInternally displaced personsPOLITICAL SCIENCE / GeneralbisacshAtrocities.Crimes against humanity.Forced migration.Genocide.Internally displaced persons.POLITICAL SCIENCE / General.364.4Basso Andrew R1794249MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910985624803321Destroy Them Gradually4334804UNINA
