Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1975 and 1978, the Khmer Rouge carried out genocide in Cambodia that was, in many ways, unparalleled in modern history. Taking an explicitly geographical approach, this book argues whether the Khmer Rouge's activities not only led to genocide, but also 'terracide' - the erasure of space. It also provides a clearer geographic understanding to genocide and gives insights into the importance of spatial factors in geopolitical conflict.
