Notes:
  • "This book analyzes the hundred year development of the 'state of exception' in Rwanda, a political theory developed and expanded by Foucault, Agamben, and others. It analyzes Hutu regime propaganda utilized to dehumanize the Tutsi population and how state action created a setting for genocide to become an appropriate reaction to political threats."--Publisher.
  • Originally presented as the author's thesis (doctoral)--Arizona State University, 2012, under the title: Who must die : the state of exception in Rwanda's genocide.
