| Zusammenfassung: | For 100 days in 1994, genocide engulfed Rwanda. Since then, many in the international community have praised the country's postgenocide government for its efforts to foster national unity and reconciliation by downplaying ethnic differences and promoting "one Rwanda for all Rwandans." Examining how ordinary rural Rwandans experience and view these policies, this book challenges the conventional wisdom on postgenocide Rwanda. The author finds that many of Rwanda's poorest citizens distrust the local officials charged with implementing the state program and believe that it ignores the deepest problems of the countryside: lack of land, jobs, and a voice in policies that affect lives and livelihoods. Based on interviews with dozens of Rwandan peasants and government officials, this book reveals how the nation's disenfranchised poor have been engaging in everyday resistance, cautiously and carefully - "whispering" their truth to the powers that be. This quiet opposition, the author argues, suggests that some of the nation's most celebrated postgenocide policies have failed to garner the grassroots support needed to sustain peace.--publisher's description |

Introduction : state power as lived experience -- Bringing in peasant Rwandans through life history interviewing -- The historical role of the state in everyday life -- A continuum of violence, 1990-2000 -- Practices of national unity and reconciliation -- Everyday resistance to national unity and reconciliation -- Everyday resistance to the Gacaca process -- Conclusion : explaining systems of power through acts of everyday resistance. For 100 days in 1994, genocide engulfed Rwanda. Since then, many in the international community have praised the country's postgenocide government for its efforts to foster national unity and reconciliation by downplaying ethnic differences and promoting "one Rwanda for all Rwandans." Examining how ordinary rural Rwandans experience and view these policies, this book challenges the conventional wisdom on postgenocide Rwanda. The author finds that many of Rwanda's poorest citizens distrust the local officials charged with implementing the state program and believe that it ignores the deepest problems of the countryside: lack of land, jobs, and a voice in policies that affect lives and livelihoods. Based on interviews with dozens of Rwandan peasants and government officials, this book reveals how the nation's disenfranchised poor have been engaging in everyday resistance, cautiously and carefully - "whispering" their truth to the powers that be. This quiet opposition, the author argues, suggests that some of the nation's most celebrated postgenocide policies have failed to garner the grassroots support needed to sustain peace.--publisher's description English.
