You are required to analyze and compare the assigned book “We Wish to Inform You That Tomorrow We Will Be Killed with Our Families” by Philip Gourevitch to at least 1 other case of genocide discussed in class (I.E. the Holocaust, Armenian Genocide, Namibian Genocide, and Rwandan Genocide). You should connect your analysis to concepts, definitions, and discussions of the course. The paper should have a well-developed thesis statement. Supporting materials must be drawn only from course materials and websites provided in this syllabus (Listed Below). The paper should assess the genocide event and should include: (1) a discussion of the victims and perpetrators of the genocide (2) what are the defining social characteristics (classes, ethnicity, religion, etc) of the groups involved (3) Compare the description to the U.N. definition of genocide. How does the case compare with the Rwanda example? 70% should be the book review, 20% should be connections to previous genocides, and the 10% should be the film discussion of “Seven Beauties” and “ Sometime in Spring”.The analysis should be written up in a 5-7 page double-spaced report Chicago style.
