I n T he 20 Y ears S ince the genocide in Rwanda, the small, land-locked, coffee-and-tea exporting, ex-Belgian country has attracted considerable more scholarly, policy, and human interest than one might have expected given the size and geostrategic importance of the country. Post-genocide Rwanda has achieved remarkable economic growth, averaging some 8 percent per annum during the past decade, as Julie van Damme, An Ansoms, and Philippe V. Baret discuss.
