Destroying to Replace
Destroying to Replace explores settler colonial genocides from a global perspective and over the long durée. The book systematically and compellingly investigates how settler colonial expansion at times created conditions conducive to genocidal violence, and the ways in which genocide was sometimes perpetrated on settler colonial frontiers.
This volume will prove invaluable to teachers and students of imperialism, colonialism, and human rights.
- Lorenzo Veracini, Swinburne University of Technology, and author of The World Turned Inside Out: Settler Colonialism as a Political Idea
