Colonial Genocide in Indigenous North America
It makes sense that the centre to watch in North American genocide studies should be at the very centre of the continent. Winnipeg was ‘settled’, as we still like to say, by Scots, English, Ukraini
Liberating Genocide
From the outset, historians of genocide have seen themselves as activists. Among historians of colonial societies that is what distinguishes them most in relation to indigenous peoples. An ethnographic sensibility should be visible in any such study, and the more so when a question of genocide is raised. After all, if we do not have a sense of difference between peoples we fail the test of genocide at the first hurdle. And if we do not have an et…
Discourses of genocide in Germany and Australia
For decades before the Nazis began the legal persecution of Jews, anti-Semites had been active in Germany. They created a climate in which genocide -or so it seems with hindsight -became possible. In 1996 an American scholar, Daniel J Goldhagen, went further. He argued that in Germany 'eliminationist anti-Semitism' had created a culture that produced 'Hitler's willing executioners'. The 'common sense' of German society during the Nazi period was …
Historiography of Genocide
Decent Disposal
About the dispossession of Australia's Aboriginal peoples there was no argument when the Europeans arrived. All land was claimed by the crown, which could then parcel it out to settlers in any manner the government in London, with advice from the other side of the world, saw fit. About the indigenous people themselves there would be more debate. With royal instructions 'to endeavour by every possible means to open an intercourse with the natives,…
Three Responses to ‘Can There Be Genocide Without the Intent to Commit Genocide?’
They appear actually to vanish from the face of the Earth.” Aborigines and the European project in Australia Felix
“Australia Felix” was an exclamation, an inspiration, a propaganda coup, and an enduring myth. As a description it was accurate for European pastoralists and fatal for the people who watched the Europeans arrive. The name, as a geographical designation, had a very short life. The Aboriginal owners and inhabitants of the country lost their land and their lives within the same short years. When Melbourne was founded in 1835 there may have been more…
Sorry, and not sorry, in Australia
It was a day of high emotion, as it had to be. Tears, joy, tension, relief. For more than two centuries Aboriginal people in Australia have been subject to relentless pressures of family destructio
Mr Darwin's shooters
Among Charles Darwin's first writings are reports on his encounters with indigenous peoples and the violence of European colonization. When he turned to evolution, the furore over mankind's place in natural history overshadowed the problem of how 'natural selection' might apply in human history. It was easy, in a nineteenth-century worldview, to see the disappearance of 'savages' as a 'natural' consequence of the advance of civilization. From a l…
