Genocide Studies and Prevention is the new international journal bringing attention to past and present human rights violations all over the world.
The twentieth century has been called “The Age of Genocide.” Some historians estimate that more than 100 million lives were lost in the twentieth century as a result of violence associated with genocide.
From the extermination of the Hereros in what is now Namibia, through the genocide of the Armenians during World War I and the Holocaust during World War II, to the genocidal killings of Khmer by Khmer in Cambodia and the horrible massacres Bosnia and Rwanda, governments around the world refused to intervene.
It became clear that the attention of the world needed to be focused on the massive destruction of human life. To that end the International Association of Genocide Scholars and the International
Institute for Genocide and Human Rights Studies, co-founded Genocide Studies and Prevention: An International Journal (GSP) – a new journal to help focus the world’s attention on the necessity of
saving human life.
GSP’s mission is to understand the phenomenon of genocide, create an awareness of it as an ongoing scourge, and promote the necessity of preventing it, for both moral and pragmatic reasons. GSP seeks to educate, inform, and encourage new generations of scholars to conduct research on genocide and to provide a forum for those who wish to work toward genocide prevention.
GSP provides a forum for scholarly investigations of genocide and related issues. Interdisciplinary in nature, this journal publishes articles on the latest developments in research, policy, and theory
from various disciplines including, but not limited to, history, political science, sociology, psychology, international law, criminal justice, philosophy, religion, and education.
