Hi, Nice post. I found this article and it had some criticism of the effect of the radio broadcasts.
It will be interesting to estimate the effect of genocide on future outcomes, like economic growth or political stability. For example, Somaliland, where the Isaaqs were killed, is currently more stable than other parts of Somalia, but that could be due to factors completely orthogonal to the genocide.
EDIT: I tried to find studies on the effects of genocide on the economy and a brief glance makes it seem that it’s verybad. I also found an interesting report on Somaliland. It looks like the situation in Somalia was worse than in Somaliland, which might explain their differences, but I’m very uncertain and I haven’t finished reading the report.
