商品描述

This book highlights the repeated refusal of post-genocide Rwandan refugees to return 'home' and why even high-profile government officials continue to flee to this day. This resistance has taken place for a lengthy period in spite of the fact that genocide ended more than 20 years ago and the government of Rwanda and the United Nations have assured security in the country. Based on interviews conducted with a number of refugees living in Africa, Europe, and North America, this book explains the high degree of fear and trauma refugees have experienced in the face of the present Rwandan government that was involved in the genocide and other serious crimes both in Rwanda and the neighboring Democratic Republic of Congo. With this book, refugee policies and implementation of the United Nations and some host countries in Africa must be questioned. The exiles have been stripped of their refugee status and host countries are prepared to refoul the refugees back to Rwanda possibly in early 2018, counter to the principle of non-refoulement ("no expulsion of refugees to a high-risk country"), the cornerstone of asylum and of international refugee law.

 

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書強調了後種族滅絕的盧旺達難民反覆拒絕回到「家」的情況,以及為什麼即使是高層政府官員至今仍然選擇逃離。儘管種族滅絕已經結束超過20年,且盧旺達政府和聯合國已保證該國的安全,但這種抵抗仍持續了相當長的時間。根據對居住在非洲、歐洲和北美的多位難民進行的訪談,本書解釋了難民面對當前參與種族滅絕及其他嚴重罪行的盧旺達政府所經歷的高度恐懼和創傷。藉由這本書,必須質疑聯合國及一些非洲東道國的難民政策及其執行。流亡者已被剝奪了難民身份,而東道國準備在2018年初將難民遣返回盧旺達,這與非遣返原則("不將難民驅逐至高風險國家")相悖,該原則是庇護及國際難民法的基石。
