Democracies abhor genocide and yet they perpetrate their own genocidal violence and then fail to acknowledge it. Drawing on the history of biological taxonomies, anthropological studies of kinship, and radical democratic theory, this work studies the root of the problem in the paradoxes of democratic inheritance and revolution, asking: What will it take to envision an anti-genocidal democracy?
