Barbaric Civilization: A Critical Sociology of Genocide

Meer over het boek

Exploring the connection between civilization and genocide, Christopher Powell presents a provocative thesis that the structure of civilization itself fosters mass murders, particularly evident in the last century. He delves into the historical context of European colonization, highlighting how colonizers frequently dehumanized those they oppressed. The book challenges readers to reconsider the relationship between societal progress and the atrocities committed in its name.
