Más información sobre el libro

The comparative-historical study explores the phenomenon of mass atrocities against religious minorities that lack power and pose no threat, focusing on the Yezidis in Iraq during the 2010s and Alevis in Turkey in the late twentieth century. It delves into the underlying reasons for these violent attacks, examining the social and political contexts that make these groups vulnerable. Through detailed case studies, the book seeks to understand the dynamics of persecution and the factors that lead to targeted violence against marginalized communities.
