Through contextualizing the significant changes experienced by the country, it throws searchlights on a number of other African states facing similar challenges. The author analyses Rwanda's challenges of nationhood after the genocide; the vision and will of the country?s leadership; its social programs and strategies for cohesion and national development; the population?s resilience; and its growing regional influence in the twenty-first century. Rwandan society is here considered not only through the lens of existing literature on African politics, but also through direct engagement and fieldwork with local populations, scholars and policymakers. In addition, the book weighs in on narratives of survivors and victims of the genocide to understand and present local dispositions to current realities such as reforms, development plans, inclusive policies and programs, and determine how Rwandans deal with historical identity issues and conflicts. This book will be of interest to students, scholars and researchers interested in Rwandan and African politics, peace and conflict studies, security (strategic) studies, and genocide studies. Sheriff F. Folarin is a Professor of International Relations and visiting scholar at the Department of Political Science, Texas State University, USA; and at the Center for Conflict Management, University of Rwanda, Rwanda. 606 $aAfrica$xPolitics and government 606 $aWelfare economics 606 $aPolitical science 606 $aEconomic policy 606 $aAfrican Politics 606 $aSocial Economy 606 $aPolitical Theory 606 $aEconomic Policy 615 0$aAfrica$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aWelfare economics. 615 0$aPolitical science. 615 0$aEconomic policy. 615 14$aAfrican Politics. 615 24$aSocial Economy. 615 24$aPolitical Theory. 615 24$aEconomic Policy. 676 $a967.571043 676 $a967.571043 700 $aFolarin$b Sheriff F.$f1973-$01431007 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910736991903321 996 $aRwanda?s radical transformation since the end of the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi$93571636 997 $aUNINA
