In the aftermath of the 1994 Rwandan genocide, the RPF has employed various means - rigged elections, elimination of opposition parties and civil society, legislation outlawing dissenting opinions, and terrorism - to consolidate power and perpetuate its position as the nation's ruling party. Although many international observers have hailed Rwanda as a 'success story' for its technocratic governance, societal reforms, and economic development, Reyntjens complicates this picture by casting light on the regime's human rights abuses, social engineering projects, information management schemes, and retributive justice system. 606 $aEthnicity$xPolitical aspects$zRwanda 606 $aHuman rights$zRwanda 607 $aRwanda$xPolitics and government$y1994- 607 $aRwanda$xEthnic relations 615 0$aEthnicity$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aHuman rights 676 $a320.967571 700 $aReyntjens$b Filip$0600465 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910787617903321 996 $aPolitical governance in post-genocide Rwanda$93776345 997 $aUNINA
