The Rwanda crisis, 1959-1994 : history of a genocide

This text analyzes the events leading up to genocidal conflicts in Rwanda during 1994, arguing that the Hutu-Tutsi conflict was not an act of "bloodlust and ancestral hatreds", but of political mass murder. Prunier delineates the political actors and explains their role in the events of 1991-94
