While much has been written about the victimization of women during the 1994 genocide in Rwanda, very little has been said about women who rescued targeted victims or perpetrated crimes against humanity. This book explores and analyzes the role played by women who exercised agency as rescuers and as perpetrators during the genocide in Rwanda. As women, they took actions and decisions within the context of a deeply entrenched patriarchal system that limited their choices. This work examines two diverging paths of women's agency during this period: to rescue from genocide or to perpetrate genocide. It seeks to answer three questions: First, how were certain Rwandan women mobilized to participate in genocide, and by whom? Second, what were the specific actions of women during this period of violence and upheaval? Finally, what were the trajectories of women rescuers and perpetrators after the genocide? Comparing and contrasting how women rescuers and perpetrators were mobilized, the actions they undertook, and their post-genocide trajectories, and concluding with a broader discussion of the long-term impact of ignoring these women, this book develops a more nuanced and holistic view of women's agency and the genocide in Rwanda.This book will be of much interest to students of gender studies, genocide studies, African politics and critical security studies."--Provided by publisher. 410 0$aRoutledge studies in gender and security. 606 $aGenocide$zRwanda 606 $aWomen and war$zRwanda 607 $aRwanda$xHistory$yCivil War, 1994 615 0$aGenocide 615 0$aWomen and war 676 $a967.57104/31 686 $aPOL035010$aPOL061000$aSOC032000$2bisacsh 700 $aBrown$b Sara E$g(Sara Elise),$0928792 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910433243403321 996 $aGender and the genocide in Rwanda$92087382 997 $aUNINA
