Biography
My research is focused in the fields of comparative genocide studies and gender and international relations. I am the author of the most widely-used textbook in genocide studies, Genocide: A Comprehensive Introduction, and will be preparing a new (fourth) edition during a sabbatical in the calendar year 2021. I recently published a major new article, “Chomsky and Genocide,” in Genocide Studies and Prevention (14: 1).
