Description

A Problem from Hell: America and the Age of Genocide by Samantha Power Samantha Power presents a deeply researched and powerfully argued account of why leaders who vow 'never again' repeatedly fail to prevent genocide. Disproving claims of ignorance, Power reveals the stories of courageous individuals who risked their careers and lives to save others, and how policy makers and outsiders alike ignored chilling warnings and rationalised inaction. This riveting account has forever reshaped debates about foreign policy, and has inspired a new generation to raise their voices in the face of contemporary injustice. Power's superb piece of reporting sheds light on a crucial period in modern history, and is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in the complexities of international relations and human rights.
