The Great Lakes region of Africa has seen dramatic changes.
After a decade of war, repression, and genocide, loosely allied
regimes have replaced old-style dictatorships. The Path of a
Genocide examines the decade (1986-97) that brackets the 1994
genocide in Rwanda. This collection of essays is both a narrative
of that event and a deep reexamination of the international role in
addressing humanitarian issues and complex emergencies.
Nineteen donor countries and seventeen multilateral
organizations, international agencies, and international
nongovernmental organizations pooled their efforts for an in-depth
evaluation of the international response to the conflict in Rwanda.
Original studies were commissioned from scholars from Uganda,
Rwanda, Zaire, Ethiopia, Norway, Great Britain, France, Canada, and
the United States. While each chapter in this volume focuses on one
dimension of the Rwanda conflict, together they tell the story of
this unfolding genocide and the world's response.
The Path of a Genocide offers readers a perspective in sharp
contrast to the tendency to treat a peace agreement as the end to
conflict. This is a detailed effort to make sense of the political
crisis and genocide in Rwanda and the effects it had on its
neighbors.
