- This monograph is based on 182 interviews conducted over three periods of fieldwork in Rwanda and Tanzania from 2008 – 2012. These interviews included lawyers, judges, court participants and government decision-makers involved in the international, national and localised courts set up following 1994 genocide. The book offers a detailed comparative cultural analysis of this empirical material, coupled with extensive courtroom observations. It draws on sociological, political and legal literatures to contribute to discussion not only in international criminal law but also in central African studies.
