Black cloth, with red-stamped spine title. Glossy, color illustrated dust jacket. Includes Notes and Index. Red endpapers. First Edition "Genocide is a new name for an old crime. Why Genocide? by sociologist Florence Mazian looks at two modern-day genocides to discover the social dynamics making them possible and to isolate factors increasing their likelihood. Using the Turkish genocide of Armenians between 1915 and 1923 and the Nazi Holocaust of Jews during World War II as examples, the author develops a theory which considers factors operative in both genocides - i.e., the creation of a group of 'outsiders' within a society, social strife, powerful leadership with territorial ambitions, a propaganda war, a system of destruction, and the failure of social controls. Why Genocide? is unique in that it provides a theoretical framework for the analysis of genocide" [from the dust jacket].
