Welcome to the Inaugural Issue of Genocide Prevention Now

This first issue of GPN is being published as a blog until construction of our website is completed. The website will include a much stronger search capacity, as well as other features. When it is completed, we will also publish this issue on it so that all contents of GPN are included in future searches.

Remember to click on Older Posts at the very bottom of each webpage in the blog to see the rest of the issue. There are 3 older posts in this issue or a total of 4 groups of posts. Please note also that, in case your displays are too small if you print them out, you can adjust the size of the font by going to View on your computer and adjusting text size.

GPN is a "web-mag" (website-magazine) that strives to present information and analyses of genocidal processes along with information about the developing field of genocide studies around the world.

Our foremost goal is to assist in the prevention --or reduction of the toll-- of genocide, without being overly innocent or naive about the frequency of mass killing and its unfortunate natural construction in our human condition.

We welcome you as regular readers. We will be publishing "issues" of the "web-mag" on a regular basis that will increase over the coming months as we consolidate our initial organization. We also welcome your becoming an Affiliate of GPN. See the sign-up form. Registered Affiliates of GPN will enjoy:
