Abstract
The Rwandan genocide is the consequence of a catastrophic combination of several circumstances: national and international political interests and economic, social and demographic effects had multiplicative effects of the risk. However, it is this last element, demographic pressure, which constitutes the clearest specificity of the unfinished tragedy of the Great Lakes region.
Comment
This hazy theory according to which the genocide of the Tutsi is due to overpopulation is shared by part of the French elite, in particular Pierre Conesa (who worked in 1993 and 1994 at the Delegation for Strategic Affairs of the Ministry of Defense) or even scientists Etienne Klein (physicist and philosopher of sciences) and Ghislain de Marsily (professor emeritus at the Sorbonne, Member of the Academy of Sciences).
