The Genocide Debate [electronic resource] : Politicians, Academics, and Victims /
Beachler, D.author.
Neither a case study of a particular genocide nor a work of comparative genocide, this book explores the political constraints and imperatives that motivate debates about genocide in the academic world and, to a lesser extent, in the political arena. The book is an analysis of the ways that political interests shape discourse about genocide.
