Focusing on the historical misconduct of trophy-taking in contemporary military forces, this book examines its prevalence over the last two centuries. It delves into the connections between such practices and colonialism, scientific collecting, and racial concepts, revealing how these actions reflect and reinforce violent power dynamics among groups. By highlighting the often-overlooked aspects of military behavior, it provides a critical perspective on the intersection of warfare and societal issues.
