America and the Age of Genocide

In her

Samantha Power dugogodišnja je suradnica Baracka Obame, a javnosti je poznata i kao dobitnica Pulitzerove nagrade za novinarstvo i književnost. Prema njezinoj vlastitoj definiciji, ona je "dijete Bosne" (rođena je u Irskoj 1970. godine, a preselila je u Sjedinjene Američke Države kada joj je bilo devet godina), gdje je bila angažirana na otkrivanju ratnih zločina i zaštiti ljudskih prava. Autorica je knjige “A problem from Hell”, u kojoj govori o američkim odgovorima na genocide počinjene u 20. stoljeću, čime je potakla debate o moralnoj odgovornosti koju imaju Sjedinjene Američke Države kao velesila. Samantha Power je u Bosnu i Hercegovinu došla 1993. godine kao freelance novinarka. Kasnije je napisala da je za nju bilo šokantno, u to je vrijeme imala 23 godine, to što su žrtve bile ciljane ne zbog onoga što su učinile nego zbog toga ko su, koje su nacionalnosti i vjeroispovijesti.
