Drawing on an array of cases from around the world and insight from a variety of disciplines, Lange provides a simple yet powerful explanation that pinpoints the influential role of modernity in the growing global prevalence of ethnic violence over the past two hundred years.
Matthew Lange is Professor of Sociology at McGill University. He is the author of Comparative-Historical Methods; Educations in Ethnic Violence: Identity, Educational Bubbles, and Resource Mobilization; and Lineages of Despotism and Development: British Colonialism and State Power and coeditor of The Oxford Handbook of Transformations of the State and States and Development: Historical Antecedents of Stagnation and Advance.
"This theoretically rich, well-illustrated, and engagingly written book is based on sound empirical evidence. It is a must-read for anybody interested in the study of violent conflicts and cultural difference."
Andreas Wimmer, Columbia University, author of Waves of War: Nationalism, State Formation, and Ethnic Exclusion in the Modern World:
"Killing Others is a bold and powerful book that restates the modernist approach to ethnicity and violence with renewed clarity and rigor."
