English | 2016 | ISBN: 1138224766, 0367077817 | EPUB | pages: 136 | 0.4 mb
Settler colonialism in Canada has traditionally been portrayed as a gentler, if not benevolent, colonialism―especially in contrast to the Indian Wars in the United States. This national mythology has penetrated into comparative genocide studies, where Canadian case studies are rarely discussed in edited volumes, genocide journals, or multi-national studies. Indeed, much of the extant literature on genocide in Canada rests at the level of self-justification, whereby authors draw on the U.N Genocide Convention or some other rubric to demonstrate that Canadian genocides are a legitimate topic of scholarly concern.

Free Download War of Annihilation: Combat and Genocide on the Eastern Front, 1941 By Geoffrey P. Megargee
2007 | 208 Pages | ISBN: 0742544826 | PDF | 17 MB
On June 22, 1941, Hitler began what would be the most important campaign of the European theater. The war against the Soviet Union would leave tens of millions of Soviet citizens dead and large parts of the country in ruins. The death and destruction would result not just from military operations but also from the systematic killing and abuse that the German army, police, and SS directed against Jews, Communists, and ordinary citizens.In War of Annihilation, noted military historian Geoffrey P. Megargee provides a clear, concise history of the Germans’ opening campaign of conquest and genocide in 1941. By drawing on the best of military and Holocaust scholarship, Megargee dispels the myths that have distorted the role of Germany’s military leadership in both the military operations themselves and the unthinkable crimes that were part of them.

Free Download Israel W. Charny Institute on the Holocaus, "The Genocide Contagion: How We Commit and Confront Holocaust and Genocide "
English | ISBN: 1442254351 | 2016 | 252 pages | EPUB | 932 KB
In The Genocide Contagion, Israel W. Charny asks uncomfortable questions about what allows people to participate in genocide-either directly, through killing or other violent acts, or indirectly, by sitting passively while witnessing genocidal acts. Charny draws on both historical and current examples such as the Holocaust and the Armenian Genocide, and presses readers around the world to consider how they might contribute to genocide. Given the number of people who die from genocide or suffer indirect consequences such as forced migration, Charny argues that we must all work to resist and to learn about ourselves before critical moments arise.

Free Download Getting Away With Genocide: Cambodia’s Long Struggle Against the Khmer Rouge By Tom Fawthrop, Helen Jarvis
2004 | 327 Pages | ISBN: 0745320287 | PDF | 4 MB
This book covers the history of Cambodia since 1979 and the various attempts by the US and China to stop the Cambodian people from bringing the Khmer Rouge to justice. After Vietnam ousted the hated Khmer Rouge regime, much of the evidence needed for a full-scale tribunal became available. In 1979 the US and UK governments, rather than working for human rights justice and setting up a special tribunal, opted instead to back the Khmer Rouge at the UN, and approved the re-supply of Pol Pot’s army in Thailand. Tom Fawthrop and Helen Jarvis reveal why it took 18 years for the UN to recognise the mass murder and crimes against humanity that took place under the Killing Fields regime from 1975-78. They explore in detail the role of the UN and the various countries involved, and they assess what chance still remains of holding a Cambodian trial under international law – especially in the light of the recent development of International Criminal Tribunals for Rwanda and the Former Yugoslavia.
