'Death by Government' examines the phenomenon of democide, which is murder by government.

R.J.

Rummel argues that democide is a far greater threat to human life than war.

The book analyzes historical cases of democide, including the Soviet Union under Stalin, China under Mao, and Nazi Germany under Hitler.

Rummel identifies factors that contribute to democide, such as totalitarianism and the concentration of power.

He advocates for democracy, free markets, and individual rights as ways to prevent democide and promote peace.
