The Rohingya Genocide

Exploring the long-running tripartite conflict between the Rohingya, Rakhine and Burman ethnic groups, this book offers a new analysis of the complexities of the conflict: the fears and motivations driving it and the competition to control historical representations and collective memory.

Myanmar's Buddhist-Muslim Crisis is a probing search into the reasons and rationalizations behind the violence occurring in Myanmar, especially the oppressive military campaigns waged against Rohingya Muslims by the army in 2016 and 2017.

Lamb chronicles extraordinary tragedy and challenges in the lives of women in wartime. And none is more devastating than the increase of the use of rape as a weapon of war. Visiting warzones including the Congo, Rwanda, Nigeria, Bosnia, and Iraq, and spending time with the Rohingya fleeing Myanmar, she records the harrowing stories of survivors, from Yazidi girls kept as sex slaves by ISIS fighters and the beekeeper risking his life to rescue them; to the thousands of schoolgirls abducted across northern Nigeria by Boko Haram, to the Congolese gynecologist who stitches up more rape victims than anyone on earth.

This wide-ranging, diverse, and coherent collection of his key essays from the past decade is supplemented by previously unpublished talks, and media interviews and photographs from the author's Global Photo Archive. The book covers the global range of historical and contemporary case-studies including the Holocaust, the Long Nineteenth Century, the Bangladeshi Genocide, the Rohingya Genocide, Rwanda, the Great Lakes Genocides, Gendercide, the role of religion and the challenges of intervention.
