   • 2001, J. Douglas Porteous, Sandra E. Smith, Domicide: The Global Destruction of Home, McGill-Queen’s University Press, page ix:

     Currently, no word exists for the action of destroying peoples’ homes and/or expelling them from their homeland. We suggest the neologism “domicide,” the deliberate destruction of home that causes suffering to its inhabitants.

   • 2012, Katherine Brickell, “Geopolitics of Home”, in Geography Compass, 6(10), p. 577:

     The work of Porteous and Smith (2001, 64) is central here to understanding what is coined "domicide", the deliberate destruction of home, which in its "extreme" form involves "major, planned operations that occur rather sporadically in time but often affect large areas and change the lives of considerable numbers of people".

     Domicide, a concept increasingly accepted in academia, is not a distinct crime against humanity under international law, and the UN special rapporteur on the right to housing tabled a report to the UN in October last year arguing that “a very important protection gap” needed to be filled.
