Prunier, author of a respected book on Rwanda's 1994 genocide, The Rwanda Crisis: History of a Genocide (C Hurst, 1998), also derided the "narrow-mindedness, selfishness and self-centredness of the political class". "In such a situation, massacres have played a role of economic, if not demographic, regulation. The same is true of Rwanda." Burundi's Hutu majority and Tutsi minority spent most of the 1990s on opposite sides of a devastating civil war when large numbers of civilians were massacred. Although the conflict is now officially over, the process of bringing in Burundi's last rebel group, Palipehutu-Forces nationales de liberation (FNL) is deadlocked. "The Tutsi-Hutu conundrum is only the surface of the deeper economic limitations," Prunier told IRIN.
