Recenzii
"A succinct, insightful, and highly readable text discussing an issue that deserves to be integral to any world history course. Using four finely crafted, yet widely dispersed, case studies Adhikari strikingly shows how vulnerability and resistance occur as the waves of global capitalism hit indigenous societies."
—Robert Gordon, University of Vermont
“Illuminating and compelling. This is a volume about genocide, a recurrent phenomenon in world history that, disturbingly, has created our modernity. Mohamed Adhikari equips the reader with a sound conceptual introduction, then provides four detailed yet clear accounts of genocide in the Canary Islands, Queensland, California, and German Southwest Africa. He has expertly provided the big picture as well as the specifics true to each history. Primary sources from each episode invite the reader’s participation in analysis. A book with which to think and to teach others.”
—Lora Wildenthal, Rice University
"From its heartbreaking cover illustration, taken from 'Oscar‘s sketchbook'—a young Queensland Aboriginal boy's record of life in the 1880s, depicting black shooting black in the name of white settlers--until its exhaustively researched final pages, Destroying to Replace: Settler Genocide of Indigenous Peoples tells harrowing stories that must be read, studied and digested by all who wish to understand and move forward from bloody and destructive pasts.
"Adhikari argues incontestably that genocide persists and that only by understanding the past and applying it to the present can societies look towards a peaceful future. . . . [He] delivers what he promises, starting with his preliminary exploration of essential concepts related to genocide: the meaning of genocide itself, the settler colonialism that initiated it, focusing on Western Imperialism as a result of industrialisation; civilian-driven versus state-directed violence, ‘exterminatory violence‘, and their consequences in the devastation of Indigenous societies themselves.
"In the words of the series editor, Alfred J Andrea, 'this book should be required reading by every student of world history, but especially by those who enjoy the fruits of lands wrested at great human expense from Indigenous Peoples'."
