Advocacy-orientated, advocacy-related and scholarly literature on the Rwandan genocide of 1994 : assessing whether the main points of concern, criticism or dispute about the literature arise from the basic facts and empirical evidence presented or from the interpretive frameworks employed to analyse them

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

This literature review is written as a response to Timothy Longman's general suggestion that much of the literature on the "Rwandan genocide of 1994" was based on empirically poor secondary analyses instead of "rigorous" original empirical research. The study was further alerted by Longman's indication that there had been "myths and inaccuracies" circulating in the literature.
