520 |a Part of a special issue on war, crisis, and transition. The writers analyze the role played by international finance institutions in the 1994 genocide in Rwanda. They review the criminological literature focusing on issues of state criminality and “crimes of globalization” before briefly describing the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, and international human rights. With the application of an integrated theory of organizational crime, they explain the conditions fostering Rwanda's genocide, including the roles of international finance lenders. They demonstrate how, because their policies and development demands altered Rwanda's social, economic, and political structures, such institutions bear some culpability for the disaster . In conclusion, they assert that international financial policies for postcolonial states should be dictated by concerns for human rights and the social, cultural, and economic needs of a state and its citizens rather than the exigencies of “free trade,” capital mobility, and global capital accumulation.
