520 8  A sobering study of the troubled African nation, both pre-
       and post-genocide, and its uncertain future The brutal 
       civil war between Hutu and Tutsi factions in Rwanda ended 
       in 1994 when the Rwandan Patriotic Front came to power and
       embarked on an ambitious social, political, and economic 
       project to remake the devastated central-east African 
       nation. Susan Thomson, who witnessed the hostilities 
       firsthand, has written a provocative modern history of the
       country, its rulers, and its people, covering the years 
       prior to, during, and following the genocidal conflict. 
       Thomson's hard-hitting analysis explores the key political
       events that led to the ascendance of the Rwandan Patriotic
       Front and its leader, President Paul Kagame. This 
       important and controversial study examines the country's 
       transition from war to reconciliation from the perspective
       of ordinary Rwandan citizens, Tutsi and Hutu alike, and 
       raises serious questions about the stability of the 
       current peace, the methods and motivations of the ruling 
       regime and its troubling ties to the past, and the 
       likelihood of a genocide-free future
