Summary / Abstract :
|
This article, an edited version of a lengthy report to the U.S. Department of State, analyzes the extreme and brutal social revolution which the Khmer Rouge began in 1973 in areas under their cont rol -- policies extended after 1975 to the entire country and population. From these earliest refugee accounts of Khmer Rouge brutality Quinn was able to distill almost the full set of Khmer Rouge polici es: forced labor, forced population movements, the collectivization and State organization of agricultural production, the extreme hostility to religion and ethnic minorities, and the murderous revolu tion within the revolution. That is, factions of the Khmer Rouge loyal to Pol Pot began killing off theirSihanoukist and Vietnamese allies in the 1970-75 civil war against the U.S.-backed Lon Nol regi me so that when the Khmer Rouge side won the civil war the Pol Pot faction would come out in complete control. Quinn's analysis, which was publicly available to Cambodia specialists, provides the poli cy program or plan that makes sense of the earliest refugee horror stories. (David Hawk).
