Eyewitness to a Genocide by Michael Barnett
Barnett addresses the ways in which the Rwandan genocide raises a warning about this age of humanitarianism and concludes by asking whether it is possible to build moral institutions."Barnett's analysis of the Rwandan crisis provides insight into the operations of the United Nations and its bureaucracy.. He explores a cultural landscape few outsiders have viewed.... Yet, despite the insights, which explain alternative logics, this important, crucial analytical work tends to expose how the UN's decision-making bureaucracy, run by good people, can contribute to the evil and darkness of Rwanda."
-- Vernon Ford * Booklist *Michael Barnett is Harold Stassen Chair at the Hubert H. Humphrey School and Adjunct Professor of Political Science at the University of Minnesota. He is coeditor most recently of Rules for the World: International Organizations in Global Politics, from Cornell, and Power and Global Governance.
