Before the Holocaust, there was no singular term for the systematic slaughter of a group of people based on nationality, ethnicity, race, or religion. In recent decades, however, we've become grimly familiar with the term genocide. These powerful books examine history's most significant genocidal acts. Each text analyzes the historical context and political and cultural factors that gave rise to mass killing. Furthermore, this series discusses attempts to achieve justice and reconciliation after genocide. By remembering and studying these dark episodes of history, readers learn the disastrous consequences of baseless hatred and hatred itself. Features include: Conforms to high school curriculum standards for social studies and history. Includes subjects often excluded from such series, such as the cultural genocide of indigenous Americans, including the Maya, the Inca, and Canada's First Nations. Evaluates primary and secondary sources, including facts and statistics derived from justice and reconciliation commissions and World Court proceedings.
