Performing Paramilitarism

Performing Paramilitarism examines the role that loyalist songs played during the Troubles and why musicians and audiences still produce and consume these songs today. The book shines a light on the ways in which these songs feed into a broader 'culture war' in Northern Ireland where, in the absence of intercommunal violence, the commemoration of paramilitary groups is used to continue the conflict by other means.

The Nazi Genocide of the Sinti and Roma Peoples

This book explores the history of the persecution of the Sinti and Roma communities in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland from 1870 to 1945. Using a transnational approach, it reveals how Nazi racial policies evolved from attempts at assimilation to systematic extermination, extending across borders through international collaboration.
