Since 1994, members of the Rwandan political class who recognise those events as genocide have struggled to account for it and bring coherence to what is often perceived as irrational, primordial savagery.Most people agree on the factors that contributed to the genocide -- colonialism, ethnicity, the struggle to control the state. However, many still disagree over the way these factors evolved, and the relationship between them. This continuing disagreemnt raises questions about how we come to understand historical events -- understandings that underpin the possibility of sustainable peace.Drawing on extensive research among Rwandese in Rwanda and Europe, and on his work with a conflict resolution NGO in post-genocide Rwanda, Nigel Eltringham argues that conventional modes of historical representation are inadequate in a case like Rwanda. Single, absolutist narratives and representations of genocide actually reinforce the modes of thinking that fuelled the genocide in the first place. Eltringham maintains that if we are to understand the genocide, we must explore the relationship between multiple explanations of what happened and interrogate how -- and why -- different groups within Rwandan society talk about the genocide in different ways. 606 $aGenocide$zRwanda 606 $aTutsi (African people)$xCrimes against$zRwanda 607 $aRwanda$xHistory$yCivil War, 1994$xAtrocities 607 $aRwanda$xEthnic relations 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aGenocide 615 0$aTutsi (African people)$xCrimes against 676 $a967.57104/31 700 $aEltringham$b Nigel$0948671 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910454524803321 996 $aAccounting for horror$92144381 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01795ojm 2200253z- 450 001 9910159494203321 005 20251118110319.0 010 $a1-5159-9325-6 035 $a(CKB)3710000001019797 035 $a(BIP)060407702 035 $a(ODN)ODN0003136082 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000001019797 100 $a20231107c2017uuuu -u- - 101 0 $aeng 200 10$aPriceless 210 $cTantor Audio 330 8 $aIt was New Year's Eve, and I should've been ringing in the night with cheap champagne and bad decisions at home in New York. Instead I found myself holed up in some hotel room in Southern California.But I wasn't alone. I was in the company of a fellow stranded traveler by the name of Cristiano. We spent one night together-forced into the same hotel room by the snowstorm that canceled our flights and changed our lives.His dimpled smile, panty-melting kisses, and charming wit were a temporary distraction from the chaos of the day . . . or the past year. But as soon as morning broke, I set my sights on getting home. I rented a car, mapped out my 2,749 mile journey, and packed my bags.Only Cristiano insisted on joining me. He needed to get home, too. His best friend was getting married on Saturday. And he refused to let me go it alone. It wasn't safe, he said.Trekking across country with an alluring stranger was certainly one of the more adventurous moments of my life. Falling for him was certainly one of the most daring. But uncovering his secrets? That was the most challenging. And the truth I learned . . . would shatter us both.Contains mature themes. 700 $aRenshaw$b Winter$01435219 702 $aSnow$b Aiden$4nrt 702 $aBridges$b Noelle$4nrt 906 $aAUDIO 912 $a9910159494203321 996 $aPriceless$93592450 997 $aUNINA
