Why do leaders who vow 'never again' repeatedly fail to prevent genocide?
In her award-winning modern classic, Samantha Power presents a deeply researched and powerfully argued answer to this haunting question. Disproving claims that successive American leaders were unaware of genocidal horrors occurring around the world, Power tells the stories of courageous individuals who risked their careers and lives in an effort to save others, revealing how policy makers and outsiders alike ignored chilling warnings and rationalised inaction. A riveting account, A Problem From Hell has forever reshaped debates about foreign policy, while inspiring a new generation to raise their voices in the face of contemporary injustice.
Samantha Power's A Problem From Hell is a riveting account of the political landscape and human rights issues that surround the topic of genocide. It's a top pick for those interested in understanding the role of the United States government and the executive branch in these global crises.
For fans of Jared M. Diamond (Upheaval), Oliver Bullough (The Last Man in Russia), James A. Robinson (The Narrow Corridor), David Graeber (Fragments of an Anarchist Anthropology), and David Wengrow (The Dawn of Everything).
