La siguiente es una lista de eventos para los cuales uno de los nombres comúnmente aceptados incluye la palabra " masacre ". [1]
Masacre se define en el Oxford English Dictionary como "la matanza indiscriminada y brutal de personas o (menos comúnmente) animales; matanza, carnicería, matanza en números". También establece que el término se usa "en los nombres de ciertas masacres de la historia". [2] El primer uso registrado en inglés de la palabra masacre en el nombre de un evento se debe a Christopher Marlow, quien en c. 1600 se refirió a lo que ahora se conoce como la masacre del Día de San Bartolomé como "La masacre de París" [3]
El propósito de la lista es rastrear específicamente el término "masacre". Hay muchos términos alternativos con connotaciones similares, como carnicería , matanza , baño de sangre , matanza en masa , atrocidad , etc., así como eufemismos como Vísperas , Blutgericht o "ataque", "incidente", "tragedia" (etc.), cuyo uso está fuera del alcance de esta lista. Masacre también se usa en sentido figurado para describir eventos dramáticos que no involucraron ninguna muerte, como la " Masacre de Hilo " y la " Masacre del sábado por la noche "; este uso también está fuera del alcance de esta lista.
Las masacres posteriores a 1945 se enumeran por separado debido al uso inflacionario en el periodismo después del cambio de siglo XX .

When in July 1099 the crusaders finally reached the goal of their long, perilous, and arduous campaign, they acted in ways that resonated with elements of one of the Bible's best known herem narratives: just as [...] the Israelites had done at Jericho, so the crusaders killed a large proportion of the city's inhabitants, including women and children.

- ^ Notable for the historically first use of "massacre" in the name of an event, by Marlowe (c. 1600); the name used by Marlowe was "The massacre at Paris". The now-current name of "Massacre of St. Bartholomew's Day" dates to the first half of the 19th century (Francis Alexander Durivage, A Popular Cyclopedia of History, 1835), translating French massacre de la Saint-Barthélemy which term had been in use since the 17th century (Louis Maimbourg, Histoire De La Ligue, 1686). Appositional "St. Bartholomew's Day massacre" (rather than genitival "Massacre of St. Bartholomew's Day") first appears in American English in the first half of the 20th century (Oberlin Alumni Magazine 31.4, 1935, p. 102).

A pamphlet with the title A short narrative of the horrid massacre in Boston, perpetrated in the evening of the fifth day of March, 1770, by soldiers of the 29th regiment, which with the 14th regiment were then quartered there; with some observations on the state of things prior to that catastrophe was printed still in 1770. Appositional "Boston massacre" was in use by the early 1800s (Benjamin Austin, Constitutional Republicanism, in Opposition to Fallacious Federalism, 1803, p. 314). The term "Massacre Day" for the annual remembrance held during 1771–1783 dates to the late 19th century (Augusta De Grasse Stevens, Old Boston: An American Historical Romance, 1888, p. 126) The 1772 "Massacre Day of Oration" by Joseph Warren was originally titled An Oration Delivered March 5th, 1772. At the Request of the Inhabitants of the Town of Boston; to Commemorate the Bloody Tragedy of the Fifth of March, 1770.

"Wanton and Senseless?: The Logic of Massacres in Algeria" Archived 2008-09-12 at the Wayback Machine Rationality and Society 1999; 11: "The most important evidence comes from testimonies of survivors who were able to identify local Islamists among the attackers (see below). In fact, survivors who openly accuse the army for its failure to intervene also expressed no doubt about the identity of the killers, pointing to the Islamist guerrillas (e.g. Tuquoi 1997). Moreover, some of the troubling aspects of this story can be explained without reference to an army conspiracy. For example, in civil wars prisoners tend to be killed on the spot rather than taken prisoner (Laqueur 1998).11 Militiamen, the most likely to capture guerrillas, have openly stated that they took no prisoners (AI 1997b: 17). Journalists working in the field have found credible testimonies in support of the thesis that most massacres are organized by the rebels (Leclère 1997; Tuquoi 1997 among others). European foreign ministries believe that it is Islamist guerrillas who are responsible for the massacres (Observer 9 February 1998). Although, it is impossible to know the full truth at this point (see Charef 1998), the assumption that many massacres were committed by the Islamist guerrillas seems plausible and is widely adopted by area experts (Addi 1998: 44) and other authors (Smith 1998: 27). Likewise, the reluctance of the army to intervene and stop some of these massacres is also beyond doubt."
