About the Book

English summary: Many books have been written on the Rwandan genocide since 1994. However, none have situated this tragic event in the countrys larger history, lacking the necessary context for understanding what transpired and the lasting effects. Filip Reyntjens is a specialist of Rwandan history, and offers here an in-depth study of the historical factors that led to the genocide, as well as the political situation that has followed. French description: Depuis le genocide en 1994, de tres nombreux livres consacres au Rwanda ont ete publies. Ce petit pays de la region des Grands Lacs est devenu, du jour au lendemain et dans des circonstances particulierement tragiques, le centre interet des observateurs du monde entier, qu'il s'agisse de journalistes, de decideurs politiques, de chanteurs, de membres d'ONG etc. Pourtant la majorite des livres publies depuis cette date n'a pas ete ecrite par des chercheurs universitaires specialistes de la region et l'histoire du Rwanda d'avant 1994 est souvent negligee sinon ignoree. Et surtout, ils sont le plus souvent consacres au genocide lui-meme ou a la periode qui le suit immediatement. Le grand interet du travail de Filip Reyntjens est d'etre consacre a la periode qui va de la prise du pouvoir par le Front patriotique rwandais au lendemain des evenements jusqu'a aujourd'hui. Specialiste de renommee mondiale de la region des Grandes Lacs, cet universitaire belge, qui a vecu au Rwanda et y a tisse de nombreux liens qui lui permettent aujourd'hui d'etre directement informe et documente sur la situation politique du pays, a choisi grace a ce livre de presenter un tableau detaille de la maniere dont est gouverne le pays et dont le general Kagame reussit a se maintenir au pouvoir et a berner une grande partie de l'opinion mondiale, toujours marquee par le sentiment de culpabilite pour avoir assiste, impuissante, au genocide.
