This book presents the insights, advice and suggestions of secondary level teachers and professors in relation to teaching about various facets of genocide. The contributions are extremely eclectic, ranging from the basic concerns when teaching about genocide to a discussion as to why it is critical to teach students about more general human rights violations during a course on genocide, and from a focus on specific cases of genocide to various pedagogical strategies ideal for teaching about genocide.
Industry Reviews
Totten's Teaching about Genocide provides insights and advice from secondary teachers and professors, many with decades of teaching experience, not to mention writings touching on every major identified genocide. Key is the volume's interdisciplinary, as well as multinational approach. The time-deprived educator will find abundant strategies, caveats, and electronic resource possibilities. Significantly, "political will" is contrasted with "political won't," as students are encouraged to become "constructive activists" in an age of genocides. -- William Younglove, Holocaust Studies Instructor, California State University Long Beach
A much-needed and extraordinarily useful resource, Teaching about Genocide: Insights and Advice from Secondary Teachers and Professors will provide educators with well-reasoned and experienced based information on teaching about genocide. Drawing upon the expertise of both secondary and college and university professors, this impressive work examines rationales for teaching about genocide and offers practical pedagogical strategies from a variety of academic disciplines and geographical locations. The importance of this issue demands a timely and powerful resource such as this book. -- Stephen Feinberg, former Director of National Outreach, Education Division, United States Holocaust Memorial Museum
