All the contributors to this volume are either experts or practitioners, often both, who have contributed in substantial ways to analyzing high risk situations, recommending preventive politics and actions, and in several instances helping to organize remedial actions. Whereas current literature often focuses on the theory of the prevention of genocide, this book explores what can be done, and has been done, in real-world situations. Unlike some existing works of advocacy, recommendations and actions are grounded in a generation of experience, based on solid historical, comparative, and empirical research and with a grounding in quantitative methods. The volume examines historical cases to understand the general causes and processes of mass violence and genocide, and engages with on-going genocidal crises including Darfur and Syria, as well as other forms of related violence such as terrorism and civil conflict."--Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Genocide $x Prevention. 650 0 $a Crimes against humanity $x Prevention. 650 0 $a Humanitarian intervention. 650 0 $a International relations. 650 7 $a Crimes against humanity $x Prevention. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00883144 650 7 $a Genocide $x Prevention. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00940214 650 7 $a Humanitarian intervention. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00963572 650 7 $a International relations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00977053 650 7 $a VoÂlkermord $2 gnd 650 7 $a PraÂvention $2 gnd 650 7 $a Politische Planung $2 gnd 700 1 $a Harff, Barbara, $d 1942- $e editor. 700 1 $a Gurr, Ted Robert, $d 1936- $e editor. 830 0 $a Routledge studies in genocide and crimes against humanity. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231019014351.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=773C1886462211E9A3F20F6897128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
