Every genocide in history has been notable for the minority of
brave individuals and groups who put their own lives at risk to
rescue its would be victims. Based on three case studies--the
genocides of the Armenians, the Jews and the Rwandese Tutsi--this
book is the first international comparative and multidisciplinary
attempt to make rescue an object of research, while breaking free
of the notion of "The Righteous Among the Nations." The result is
an exceptionally rich and disturbing volume. While it is impossible
to distill or describe what makes an individual into a rescuer,
acts of rescue reveal a historical fact: the existence of an
informal, underground network of rescuers-- however fragile--as
soon as genocides get underway, and in every geographical and
social context.
