Synopsis

This volume is the result of the conference on "Ethnic Cleansing in Twentieth-Century Europe" held at Duquesne University in November 2000. The conference brought together 60 scholars, primarily historians but also specialists in other fields, as well as survivors of ethnic cleansing from seven different countries, who presented 48 papers. The volume encompasses an array of case studies, behaviours, origins and patterns, and such topics as: "redrawing the ethnic map" in North America from 1536 to 1946; the 20th century's first genocide (Armenia 1915-16); ethnic cleansing in World War II and its aftermath; and late-20th century developments in Kosovo.
