Understanding Genocide: The Social Psychology of the Holocaust
Oxford University Press USA (2002)
Abstract
When and why do groups target each other for extermination? How do seemingly normal people become participants in genocide? In these essays, social psychologists use the principles derived from contemporary research in their field to try to shed light on the behaviour of perpetrators of genocide.
