Cambodia, 1975-1978 by Karl D Jackson

A collection of essays, which search for what can be explained in the ultimately inexplicable evils perpetrated by the Khmer Rouge. It is accompanied by a photo essay that provides visual evidence of the tragedy of Cambodia's autogenocide.
"The most important examination of the subject so far.. Without in any way denying the horror and brutality of the Khmers Rouges, the essays adopt a principle of detached analysis which makes their conclusion far more significant and convincing than the superficial images emanating from the television or cinema screen."--The Times Literary Supplement "A book that belongs on the shelf of every scholar interested in Cambodia, revolution, or communism."--Perspectives on Political Science
