See the linked excellent book chapter by Australian genocide scholar A. Dirk Moses “Raphael Lemkin, culture, and the concept of genocide”.

It's the first chapter of the 2012 book The Oxford Handbook of Genocide Studies by Donald Bloxham & A. Dirk Moses (Editors). www.dirkmoses.com/.../moses_le...

It was back in early 2020 when I was last inspired to write a similar piece. I titled it "The greatest unleashing of monetary stimulus in the history of the world".

In 2024 I read 24 BOOKS, many were on my shelves for years. A green asterisk is a top FIVE STAR RATING. The list is eclectic, I had little direction. All but two were nonfiction. As in 2023, anthropology & sociology perspectives for me were fresh, deep and useful. History remains my main addiction.

As pictured, my reading was disciplined in 2023. Most I bought that year. My style preferences became acute. Favourites remain waterfalls of facts with footnotes, communicating insightful observations in finely wrought English.

I have a huge priorities list for 2025, aiming to direct book reading.
