Damien Short 
Redefining Genocide [EPUB ebook] 
Settler Colonialism, Social Death and Ecocide

In this highly controversial and original work, Damien Short systematically rethinks how genocide is and should be defined.Rather than focusing solely on a narrow conception of genocide as direct mass-killing, through close empirical analysis of a number of under-discussed case studies including Palestine, Sri Lanka, Australia and Alberta, Canada the book reveals the key role played by settler colonialism, capitalism, finite resources and the ecological crisis in driving genocidal social death on a global scale.
