In: Routledge Studies in Genocide and Crimes against Humanity
This book explores concepts of Cultural genocide, its definitions, place in international law, the systems and methods that contribute to its manifestations, and its occurrences. Through a systematic approach and comprehensive analysis, international and interdisciplinary contributors from the fields of genocide studies, legal studies, criminology, sociology, archaeology, human rights, colonial studies, and anthropology examine the legal, structural, and political issues associated with cultural genocide. This includes a series of geographically representative case studies from the USA, Brazil, Australia, West Papua, Iraq, Palestine, Iran, and Canada. This volume is unique in its interdisciplinarity, regional coverage, and the various methods of cultural genocide represented, and will be of interest to scholars of genocide studies, cultural studies and human rights, international law, international relations, indigenous studies, anthropology, and history.

"There exists a dominant narrative that essentially defines the United States' relationship with genocide through what the U.S. has failed to do to stop or prevent genocide, rather than through how its actions have contributed to the commission of genocide. This narrative acts to conceal the true nature of the United States' relationship with many of the governments that have committed genocide since the Holocaust, as well as the United States' own actions. In response, this book challenges the dominant narrative through a comprehensive analysis of the United States' relationship with genocide. The analysis is situated within the broader genocide studies literature, while emphasizing the role of state responsibility for the commission of genocide and the crime's ancillary acts. The book addresses how a culture of impunity contributes to the resiliency of the dominant narrative in the face of considerable evidence that challenges it. Bachman's narrative presents a far darker relationship between the United States and genocide, one that has developed from the start of the Genocide Convention's negotiations and has extended all the way to present day, as can be seen in the relationships the U.S. maintains with potentially genocidal regimes, from Saudi Arabia to Myanmar. This book will be of interest to scholars, postgraduates, and students of genocide studies, U.S. foreign policy, and human rights. A secondary readership may be found in those who study international law and international relations."--Provided by publisher.

Within genocide studies, a group of early scholars known as pioneers of the field made crucial contributions to genocide studies, raising the field's visibility and stature prior to its great expansion that began around the turn of the century. While recognizing the significance of the early contributions to the field, it is important that we also recognize their origins—mostly white American, European, and Anglophone men. Though the field has expanded exponentially over the last twenty years, it has not yet been determined whether such expansion has been accompanied by an increase in gender, ethnic and racial, and geographic diversity. Such diversity is essential to the advancement of key definitional, conceptual, and theoretical debates in the field. This paper surveys the field of genocide studies in order to assess the level of contributions coming from underrepresented groups and geographies while situating their contributions within the larger field of study.
