Genocide
From Mises Wiki, the global repository of classical-liberal thought
Genocide is the deliberate and systematic wholesale eradication of a certain genetic characteristic from a population, by killing the carriers or by preventing them from reproducing. Modern definitions of genocide include the destruction of ethnic, religious and national groups; since these are distinctions based on ideas held by the victims, this could also be considered memocide. Genocide, as defined by various treaties, is a serious offense under international law.
