  • Gender and the Genocide in Rwanda
    Gender and the Genocide in Rwanda This book examines the mobilization, role, and trajectory of women rescuers and perpetrators during the 1994 genocide in Rwanda. While much has been written about the victimization of women during the 1994 genocide in Rwanda, very little has been said about women who rescued targeted victims or perpetrated crimes against humanity. This book explores and analyzes the role played by women who exercised agency as rescuers and as per- petrators during the genocide in Rwanda. As women, they took actions and deci- sions within the context of a deeply entrenched patriarchal system that limited their choices. This work examines two diverging paths of women’s agency during this period: to rescue from genocide or to perpetrate genocide. It seeks to answer three questions: First, how were certain Rwandan women mobilized to parti- cipate in genocide, and by whom? Second, what were the specific actions of women during this period of violence and upheaval? Finally, what were the tra- jectories of women rescuers and perpetrators after the genocide? Comparing and contrasting how women rescuers and perpetrators were mobilized, the actions they undertook, and their post- genocide trajectories, and concluding with a broader discussion of the long- term impact of ignoring these women, this book develops a more nuanced and holistic view of women’s agency and the genocide in Rwanda. This book will be of interest to students of gender studies, genocide studies, African politics and critical security studies. Sara E. Brown is a Fellow at the USC Shoah Foundation – The Institute for Visual History and Education, and has a PhD in Comparative Genocide Studies from Clark University, USA.

  • Ethnicity, Violence, and the Narrative of Genocide: the Dangers of a Third-Term in Rwanda
    African Studies Quarterly | Volume 17, Issue 1 | March 2017 At Issue: Ethnicity, Violence, and the Narrative of Genocide: The Dangers of a Third-Term in Rwanda RYAN GOEHRUNG Abstract: Rwanda’s upcoming August 2017 presidential election provides a unique opportunity for the international community to reflect upon the past and contemplate the future of a nation that has struggled with intense ethnic factionalism for much of its history. In particular, incumbent President Paul Kagame’s bid for a third-term is cause to consider the merits and dangers of his continued rule. While Kagame is often hailed for his role in ending the 1994 civil war and ushering in an era of stability and economic growth, in recent years his regime has faced widespread criticism for rampant human rights abuses, repression of civil liberties, growing income inequality, clandestine involvement in regional conflicts, and suppression of political opposition. Despite strong evidence for many of these allegations, to date Kagame and his ideologues have escaped any major international censure by virtue of his brash indignation toward any indictments and his willingness to utilize the memory of genocide to deflect criticism. However, closer analysis of the Kagame government reveals that in many ways it is recreating the economic, social, and political conditions that have in the past led to the proliferation of ethnic tensions and heralded outbreaks of violence. Therefore, it is a critical juncture for the international community to consider intervention prior to the 2017 elections to compel more substantive democratization characterized by ethnic power-sharing in order to forestall any potential resurgences of violence and ensure that Rwanda continues on its path towards reconciliation and stability.

Yet a lack of in-depth quantitative and qualitative analysis on this likelihood is leaving a gaping hole in the field of genocide prevention. Scholars and non-governmental organizations have failed to provide a full-scale scrutiny of today’s Rwanda while at the same time admitting it is a country at risk for possible large scale conflict and criticizing the international community’s failure to act in 1994. This research fills a significant hole in the current literature by analyzing the existing conditions for conflict recurrence in Rwanda using two never before contrasted early warning models and placing them side by side for a more complete risk assessment profile.

By tracing Rwandan state’s “mundane sights” – everyday forms of presence and monitoring – the paper sheds light on the historical development and striking continuities in ‘interactive surveillance’ across a century of turbulent political change. The paper considers three emblematic surveillance technologies— the nyumbakumi institution, the identity card, and umuganda works (and public activities more broadly)— which, despite their implication in genocide, were retained, reworked and even bolstered after the conflict ended.

Across today’s developing world, unprecedentedly This chapter explains why the approach to youth large youth populations are evident alongside a exclusion isn’t working, and what can be done to second predominant phenomenon: profound and transform it. The chapter draws mainly from the persistent exclusion of youth. Rare is the case where national governments, or their international case of war and postwar Africa, where the distance development partners, introduce a viable solution between youth and governments and international to address these dual challenges. Much too often, development agencies tends to be pronounced, and colossal cohorts of youthful citizens are considered where inaccurate stereotypes about young people security threats, to be counteracted with a mix pervade. The changes that are required necessarily of state repression and employment programs move governments and international development for a tiny fraction of the youth population.
