Kagame's Killing Fields
Rwandan president Paul Kagame has made a career out of appearing to be a man of peace and prosperity. His leadership has been praised by President Bill Clinton and depicted as Rwanda's saving grace. This could not be further from the truth. Kagame may appear to be a savior, but he is a devil in disguise. In this startling expos�, a former member of Kagame's staff introduces you to the man behind the mask. Instead of peace, Kagame spreads violence wherever he goes. Political leaders, religious figures, businesspersons, journalists, and average citizens are all targeted under Kagame's regime. The brutality has even spread to the Democratic Republic of Congo. Author David Himbara argues that Kagame is a dictator who doesn't simply see violence as a means to an end but openly delights in it. Since 1994, the Rwandan and Congolese populace have lived in fear of being killed or simply "disappearing" at Kagame's discretion. Whenever Kagame attracts attention for his crimes, he has a convenient villain to blame it on. Himbara encourages all readers to stop buying into this lie. The only enemy is Kagame, and he must be stopped before his violence spreads even further!
Kagame's Economic Mirage
"In 2013, slightly past halfway through execution of his economic strategies, Kagame declared that his mission had been accomplished- he announced that he had already built an African economic lion. Then, in Februrary 2016, Kagame announced that Rwanda was a top global social and economic performer. This is a mirage. Kagame has delivered neither economic development nor democracy. His main achievement is attaining a self-made iconic status in the West by cunningly merchandizing himself as a visionary leader. Rwanda remains among the world's poorest countries, even poorer than countries considered to be failed states, such as Afghanistan and Haiti. With hardly any formal private sector to generate domestic revenue, foreign aid still finances half of Rwanda's budget. Beneath its masquerade as the "Singapore of Africa", Rwanda struggles with cronyism and grand corruption. This reality is concealed by a repressive totalitarian apparatus that controls almost all aspects of national life"--Main Argument, v-vi.
Kagame Ate Rwanda's Pension
Hailed by Western elites as a leader of extraordinary vision, Paul Kagame portrayed himself as the president who helped shepherd Rwanda into a prosperous, modern future. But as this book shows, the truth is far from what we've been led to believe. In truth, the former rebel leader Kagame was a well-spoken gangster, using his position of power to loot his own people for personal gain and enrich private interests. But with praise and support from luminaries like former US president Bill Clinton and former British prime minister Tony Blair, the full truth behind Paul Kagame's corrupt rule was never exposed to the light of day. This book changes that. Author David Himbara blows the whistle by showing that Kagame looted the national pension, bilking his own people. In the process, he drained his country's prosperity to line his own pockets. With Kagame's party still in power, this shocking, straightforward account is filled with international intrigue and riddled with terrifying implications. Now that Kagame has been exposed, only one question remains: will the world hold him and his party accountable for their heartless, brazen thievery?

The Politics of Art, Death and Refuge
This book deals in different ways with the politics of death, with art and politics and with the politics of refuge and asylum. Cutting across these fields brings to the fore the fluid quality of social life under late capitalism. The elements of time, space and emotion are part of the overall approach adopted. The individual chapters illustrate themes of despair, striving and the politics of hope, and bring out the fluid and unpredictable qualities of social life. The guiding metaphor is fluidity, or what Urry refers to as “waves; continuous flow; pulsing; fluidity and viscosity” characteristic of life, death, refuge and art under the contemporary global system. Between the worlds of cu...
