Description
The Genocide Issue is a powerful, urgent compendium exploring genocidal atrocities, authoritarianism, and the fragility of democratic norms. Divided into five sections-"Documents," "Gaza," "The Balkans," "The Holocaust," and "Indigenous Peoples"-it also includes a major translation section, In Other Words, from Turkish. Featuring poets, writers, scholars, and journalists from Ireland, Britain, and across the globe, this issue confronts state-sanctioned violence, media erosion, and threats to freedom of conscience. With literary rigour and ethical clarity, it offers a bold, necessary intervention, defending humanity and the radical power of literature in an era of escalating crisis.
