The study of lynching in US history has become a well-developed area of scholarship. However, scholars have rarely included comparative or transnational perspectives when studying the American case, although lynching and communal punishment have occurred in most societies throughout history.

Simon Wendt is Assistant Professor in the Institute of English and American Studies at the University of Frankfurt, Germany.
