A seminal contribution from a major scholar in the field. --Ernesto Verdeja University of Notre Dame Genocide as Social Practice makes its English language debut after successful publication in its original Spanish. Feierstein provides a critical analysis of the genocidal policies of Nazi Germany and the Argentine junta. Feierstein shows that the terror brought forth by the junta, often referred to as the 'dirty war, ' shared many goals with the terror of perpetrators of the Holocaust. Feierstein has established himself as a go-to voice on the Argentine genocide, which is solidified here. Recommended. --Ernesto Verdeja Choice
