Global Dimensions of the 1994 Genocide against Tutsi in Rwanda - Thanushiyah Korn | diss:kurs 2024

It's been 30 years since the international community turned a blind eye to the 1994 Genocide against Tutsi in Rwanda. Using the case of financial aid from the International Development Association, Thanushiyah Korn illustrates the role that international actors played on Rwanda's path to genocide. She argues that the extent of the crime that cost over 800'000 people's lives within 100 days cannot be understood without considering the global dimensions of the genocide.
This video is a recording of Thanushiyah Korns presentation at the diss:kurs 2024 event, where doctoral candidates and postdocs of the University of Basel presented their research project to an academic and broader public.
