Inhaltsangabe

In the mid-1990s, civil war and genocide ravaged Rwanda. Since then, the country&;s new leadership has undertaken a highly ambitious effort to refashion Rwanda&;s politics, economy, and society, and the country&;s accomplishments have garnered widespread praise. Remaking Rwanda is the first book to examine Rwanda&;s remarkable post-genocide recovery in a comprehensive and critical fashion. By paying close attention to memory politics, human rights, justice, foreign relations, land use, education, and other key social institutions and practices, this volume raises serious concerns about the depth and durability of the country&;s reconstruction.
            Edited by Scott Straus and Lars Waldorf, Remaking Rwanda brings together experienced scholars and human rights professionals to offer a nuanced, historically informed picture of post-genocide Rwanda&;one that reveals powerful continuities with the nation&;s past and raises profound questions about its future.
