"""serves as a point of entry into a complex set of issues""-- ""Contemporary Southeast Asia"""

""Locard uses interviews, court hearings, and other sources to highlight the role of ethnic minorities like the Jarai, Tampuon, Kroeung, Brao, Krachok and others in the regime. By emphasizing these peoples, Locard pushes back against some of the literature on Khmer Rouge....This is a book that would be good for college students, legal and human rights professionals, and Southeast Asian enthusiasts. Locard captures the ethnic minority voice, an important group who was part of the regime. The book adds to the literature by allowing the audience to see the Khmer Rouge outside of the perspectives of the leaders and survivors, shedding light on a devasting period in Cambodia.""-- ""History: Reviews of New Books"" ""serves as a point of entry into a complex set of issues""-- ""Contemporary Southeast Asia""
