PALGRAVE STUDIES IN ORAL HISTORY NEGOTIATING ...

This book is an oral history-based study of the politics of history in the aftermath of the
1994 genocide in Rwanda. Using life history and thematic interviews  the author brings the
narratives of officials  survivors  returnees  perpetrators  and others whose lives have been
intimately affected by genocide into conversation with scholarly studies of the Rwandan
genocide  and Rwandan history more generally. In doing so  she explores the following
questions: How do Rwandans use history to make sense of their experiences of genocide and
related mass atrocities? And to what end? In the aftermath of such violence  how do people's
interpretations of the varied forms of suffering they endured then influence their ability to
envision and support a peaceful future for their nation that includes multi-ethnic cooperation?
