(openPR) - Working through burdened history of post genocidal Rwanda

When examining the bloodiest chapter of early African history - the genocide in Rwanda - no words can be found to adequately report the gruesome occurrence. The magnitude of massacres executed in Rwanda is beyond human imagination. The people of Rwanda have the major task to live with the memory of that genocide. In connecting with the genocide you will be confronted with brutal and inhumane incidents that may alter your current way of thinking and forever change your view of humankind.

The ethical discussion about proper handling of the history and guilt of Rwanda is the central topic of a new paper published by Marcel Bohnert. The author is German Infantery Officer and has studied ethics, psychology and sociology at the University of the Federal Armed Forces in Hamburg and at the Central Connecticut State University in New Britain. He is PhD candidate and going to be an UN Military Observer.

After introducing the historical context of Rwanda and the course of genocide, a scientific case study is performed. From the study, national and international responsibilities can be gathered. After introducing the situation of survivors, the policy of dealing with issues of the past, and the plan for ethnic reconciliation, a legal discussion about the genocide is added. Lastly, the previous steps are evaluated and impacts on the current and future situation of Rwanda are discussed.
