概要
In 1975, the Cambodian capital of Phnom Penh fell to a rebel movement known as the Khmer Rouge. These Marxist revolutionaries seized control of the country and unleashed a reign of terror rarely seen in modern history. Over the next four years, the regime, led by dictator Pol Pot, was responsible for the deaths of nearly a quarter of Cambodia’s population. Entire communities were destroyed, and the nation’s religious and cultural heritage was systematically dismantled.
The horrors of the Cambodian killing fields are difficult to confront, but they cannot be ignored. In a 1948 speech to the British House of Commons, Prime Minister Winston Churchill warned, “Those who fail to learn from history are condemned to repeat it.” So what can we learn from the story of the Cambodian killing fields, and how can we ensure such a tragedy is never repeated?
