"The shocking characteristics of Rwanda's genocide in 1994 have etched themselves
indelibly on the global conscience. The Path to Genocide in Rwanda combines extensive,
original field data with some of the best existing evidence to evaluate the myriad
theories behind the genocide and to offer a rigorous and comprehensive explanation
of how and why it occurred, and why so many Rwandans participated in it. Drawing on
interviews with over three hundred Rwandans, Omar Shahabudin McDoom systematically
compares those who participated in the violence against those who did not. He contrasts
communities that experienced violence early with communities where violence began
late, as well as communities where violence was limited with communities where it
was massive. His findings offer new perspectives on some of the most troubling questions
concerning the genocide, while also providing a broader engagement with key theoretical
debates in the study of genocides and ethnic conflict"
