The contributors employ philosophical approaches to explore the idea of genocidal violence as a structural element in the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDo mechanisms or structures in nation-states produce types of national citizens that are more susceptible to genocidal projects? There are powerful arguments within philosophy that in order to be the subjects of our own lives, we must constitute ourselves specifically as national subjects and organize ourselves into nation states. Additionally, there are other genocidal structures of human society that spill beyond historically limited episodes. The chapters in this volume address the significance--moral, ethical, political--of the fact that our very form of agency suggests or requires these structures. The contributors touch on topics including birthright citizenship, contemporary mass incarceration, anti-black racism, and late capitalism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eLogics of Genocide \u003c\/i\u003ewill be of interest to scholars and advanced students working in philosophy, critical theory, genocide studies, Holocaust and Jewish studies, history, and anthropology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnne O'Byrne\u003c\/strong\u003e is Associate Professor of Philosophy at Stony Brook University.
