Representing such fields as sociology, political science, psychology, queer studies, and human-rights activism, the contributors explore themes and issues outlined by editor Adam Jones in the books opening essay, in which he argues that throughout history and around the world, the population group most consistently targeted for mass killing and state-backed oppression are non-combatant men of roughly fifteen to fifty-five years of age. Such males, Jones contends, are typically seen as the group posing the greatest danger to the conquering force. The subsequent essayssome original, some drawn from a special issue of the Journal of Genocide Research and other sourcesexpand, diversify, and criticize this framing of gendercide.
