THE COURTS OF
GENOCIDE
The Courts of Genocide focuses on the judicial
responsi·
to the genocide in
Rwanda in order to address the search for justice following mass atrocities.
I
lu-
central concern ol the book is how the politics of justice can get in the
.i nt its administration. Considering both the 1CTR (International Criminal
tribunal for Rwanda), and all
ОІ
the politics surrounding its work, and the
Rwandan approach fthc
Gacąca
courts and the national judiciary) and the
politics that surround it, The Courts of Genocide addresses the relationship
between these three courts which, whilst oriented bv similar concerns, stand
in stark opposition to each other. In this respect, the book addresses a series
ot questions, including: What aspects of the Rwandan genocide itself played
a role in directing the judicial response that has been adopted. On what basis
did the Government of Rwanda decide to address the genocide in a legalistic
manner? Around what goals has each judicial response been organized? What
are the specific procedures and processes of this response? And, finally, what
challenges does its multilaceted character create tor those involved in its
operation, as well as for Rwandan society? Addressing conceptual issues of
restorative and retributive justice, liberal-legalism and cosmopolitan law. The
Courts of Genocide constitutes a substantiallv grounded reflection upon the
problem ot doing justice after genocide.
Nicholas A. Jones is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Justice
Studies at the University ot
