Shrnutí:[...]the methods adopted in the latter phase of violence share remarkable similarities of form, albeit conducted on a far divergent scale, that suggests a single conception of power, authority, and rule at the heart of early postcolonial Burundi. In order to explore this tangled web of acts and interpretations, shared across two intertwined yet consecutive periods of violence, the narrative of historical events must be somewhat set aside, the better to see the interrelations and similarities that bound the complex of violence together. [...]after a brief overview of the disaster, the analysis below adopts something of a ring structure, the literary device of chiasmus.2 We begin with a brief introduction to the representations of rebel violence as constructed by the propaganda of state, which was the frame through which the majority of the population and the world began to learn of the rebel uprising.
