Hidden Death: Rwandan Post-genocide Gacaca Justice and its Dangerous Blind Spots; Bert IngelaereReviewsPrevention of genocide is a most inexact science. It is also a frustrating exercise because the best efforts at early warning are negated frequently due to lack of political will to confront the difficult choices that are always involved in saving innocent lives. Precisely because of those difficulties it is especially important to continue to explore root causes of mass atrocity, as well as how to redress past wrongs before the tensions they create escalate into genocide. It is equally important to study what measures have worked in the past even if the causal link to the prevention of genocide is always hard to prove. In particular, social practices and public policies in the last quarter century to address legacies of mass atrocities can offer clues towards appropriate remedies for victims and perhaps even a path toward genuine reconciliation. This volume attempts all of that and its ambition is reflected also in the depth and quality of the contributions assembled. It is bound to become an indispensable tool in the urgent task to prevent the crime of crimes. - Juan Mendez, Washington College of Law, USA Author InformationCathie Carmichael, University of East Anglia, UK Joëlle Hecker, Institut d'Études Politiques, Paris Chris Jones, University of East Anglia, UK Dean J.
