A new book has been published that addresses the disturbing question of what each of us is likely to do – what role we will play – in the event that a genocide develops in our society.
The Declaration of Independence of the State of Israel (1948) uses the term Shoah in its 5th paragraph.

We are pleased to announce the publication of Adorno and the Concept of Genocide (Leiden/Boston: Rodopi/Brill, 2016), an examination of the legacy of Critical Theory's foremost authority on life 'after Auschwitz.'

We would like to hear about your experiences with travel seminars abroad. Our program - the Master of Arts in Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Kean University - is convening one in July to Cambodia, where the Khmer Rouge tribunal is wrapping up, as well as to Vietnam.

Students who signed up (others still can) tell us that the travel seminars we sponsor were one important reason they applied to our program.

The editors of Genocide Studies International (GSI) welcome readers to the fourth issue, a general issue covering a range of concerns, from the question of an international criminal court to a typology of rescuers. Given that this is the second issue for 2015, the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide, it understandably contains two articles devoted to recent developments on this topic. And, it continues our innovative “Notes from the Field” feature with further coverage of the dire situation in the Nuba Mountain and Blue Nile regions of Sudan.
