Following a devastating genocide in 1994, the Rwandan government
elected to hold all perpetrators accountable - including children.
Thousands of children were held in prisons while awaiting charges;
some were later convicted. This book is about these children.
Drawing on interviews and extensive archival research in Rwanda, it
documents their journey through prisons, formal courts, gacaca
proceedings or re-education centres. Its insights extend beyond
Rwanda, looking at how international law protects children accused
of even the most serious atrocities. The book is about law in
action, and how states, and international organisations,
operationalise international standards on child perpetrators in
challenging post-conflict conditions. Engaging with theories from
international law, international relations and anthropology, it
illuminates strategies utilised by UNICEF to promote the rights of
alleged child genocidaires and traces UNICEF's positive influence
on their protection. It makes the case for principled pragmatism as
an approach to human rights promotion in post-conflict societies.
