America’s Involvement in International Violence: A Study on Genocide, and the Implications of War and Terrorism

Abstract Overview of America’s involvement with historical genocides, illustrated by general overviews, as well as more detailed approaches to some of our times most significant genocides. America’s involvement with genocides internationally is that of non-intervention, mixed with American exceptionalism that results in our country feeling as though it is above or outside the law. Also examined is the relationship that war and terrorism share with genocide, concluding with recommendations of how America should move forward with the way in which it handles itself in violence internationally.
