The Rwanda crisis : history of a genocide
1997
This book offers a historical perspective on how the 1994 massacres of 800,000 Rwandese came to pass. It probes how the genocidal events in Rwanda were part of a deadly logic - a plan that served central political and economic interests - rather than a result of primordial tribal hatreds between the Hutus and Tutsis, a notion often invoked by the media to dramatise the fighting. (Adapted from back cover). On cover: "With a new chapter." xiv, 424 pages : map ; 22 cm
