In it [Daniel Jonah Goldhagen] uses the interpretive frame of his controversial 1996 book on the Holocaust, Hitler's Willing Executioners, for an analysis of genocide in general. Goldhagen's first book was rejected by scholars for faulty research and interpretation, and the present work will not likely fare any better.
Goldhagen's central concept is "eliminationism," which he prefers to the more narrowly defined genocide. Eliminationist leaders and politics are key to understanding the origins as well as the course of genocide, from that of the Armenians, Jews and Cambodians, to the so-called "ethnic cleansing" by Serbs and Croat in the Balkans, as well as the recent assaults in Rwanda and Darfur.

Would that it were true. A similar boast was made after the trial of Nazi war criminals following the Second World War, when the world said "Never Again." But it did happen again, in China, Cambodia, Burma, East Timor, Bosnia, Kosovo, Rwanda, Burma, Somalia, Darfur, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and other places. The tragic fact is there is no evidence that incidents of ethnic cleansing and genocide have been or will be deterred by the fear of prosecution at an international tribunal.

Peacekeeping has a place of pride in the Canadian national identity. Canadians feel that their nation is a natural leader in this international endeavour. How is this national identity expressed, and howhas it come about? Is it justified? An answer to these questions requires a probe of Canadian public and military attitudes, a historical review of Canada's peacekeeping activities, and an examination of current Canadian contributions. The final question is: What is needed if Canada is to live up to the image of the proud and prolific peacekeeper?
