As we enter the 21st century, genocide, war, crimes against humanity, and forms of mass atrocity constitute one of the greatest challenges that confront us. CGHR's Rutgers University Press Series, "Genocide, Political Violence, Human Rights," publishes cutting-edge scholarship from across the disciplines that enhance our understanding of such large-scale human rights violations and the principles and mechanisms that seek to prevent them, protect the vulnerable, and help victims recover.

This series, a partnership between Rutgers University Press and the Rutgers Center for the Study of Genocide and Human Rights, is breaking new ground not just by publishing outstanding new titles related to its topical focus but also in developing a unique arrangement that will offer many of the authors the opportunity to have their books translated into Spanish and other languages.
