Nombre des délégations et journalistes internationaux qui visitèrent Tuol Sleng dans les années qui suivirent la chute du régime des Khmers rouges écrivirent des commentaires dans les livres de visiteurs que le musée mettait à leur disposition. La géographe Rachel Hughes étudie la dimension de médium d’instruction politique de ces livres, et met en évidence leur rôle comme élément de dialogue international et source d’information sur les premières années du musée.
Mots clés : musée du Génocide de Tuol Sleng, Cambodge, livres de visiteurs, République populaire du Kampuchéa, solidarité, mémoires de prison, témoignage.
