Reviews

‘Dr. Salih develops an original analysis of how group difference and eliminationist sentiment can be embedded in the cultural psychology of individuals and sociocultural institutions, facilitating the perpetration of genocide. Her book is one of the first to bring a sophisticated, theoretically informed genocide studies perspective to the study of Ba'athist genocides against Kurds.’ Andrew Woolford, University of Manitoba, Canada ‘Kaziwa Salih examines the cultural roots of Kurdish genocides. Salih shows that political divisions cover deeper doxa (accepted beliefs) that fracture nations and empires. Lemkin held that genocide is cultural. Kurdish genocides have been attempts to destroy Kurdish culture.’ Gregory H. Stanton, Founding President, Genocide Watch ‘Genocide needs to be analyzed within the categories of classical sociology. Focusing on the case study of the Kurds in Iraq, Kaziwa Salih offers a great contribution to comprehending the functionality and objective of genocidal social practices and the role of culture in genocide.’ Daniel Feierstein, National University of Tres de Febrero in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
