In the Shadow of Genocide: Justice and Memory within Rwanda (Routledge Studies in Genocide and Crimes against Humanity) is an interdisciplinary book edited by Stephanie Wolfe, Matthew Kane, and Tawia Ansah. It explores how justice and memory are understood and enacted in post-genocide Rwanda through the perspectives of scholars, practitioners, survivors, and Rwandan civil society.
The book is divided into sections that examine:
Personal, cultural, and global experiences of memory and justice.
The impact of the 1994 Genocide Against the Tutsi seen through the eyes of survivors, including children.
Transitional justice mechanisms such as criminal trials, gacaca courts, and symbolic reparations.
The challenges of reconciliation and rebuilding society, including issues around revenge killings and support for survivors of genocidal rape.
The role of artistic expressions like memorial sites, poetry, film, and photography in preserving memory and promoting healing.
Contributions from Rwandan voices alongside international academics to provide a rich and varied understanding of post-genocide justice and memory.
The book highlights the complex process by which individuals and communities confront atrocity, remember the past, seek justice, and strive for reconciliation. It serves as an important resource for scholars and students in political science, law, African studies, genocide studies, social work, and other fields interested in post-conflict recovery.
