Gender and Genocide in Burundi - The Search for Spaces of Peace in the Great Lakes Region (Paperback)

Can Burundi achieve its political and economic objectives without returning to genocidal violence? This book identifies the continuities and transformations of violence in Burundi and shows how violence has been intensified through the introduction of modern concepts of masculinity. It shows how Burundi is linked to the patterns of recurrent genocidal violence in Rwanda, Congo and Uganda. Patricia Daley argues passionately for a revised feminist-historical approach to understanding violence and reforming the processes whereby local and international bodies put together peace agreements. PATRICIA DALEY is a Lecturer in the School of Geography and the Environment, Oxford University, and a Fellow of Jesus College, Cambridge North America: Indiana U Press; Uganda: Fountain Publishers; Kenya: EAEP; South Africa: Jacana
