Research Proposal for Human Rights Conference

The topic that I am interested in researching is the "Bosnian Genocide" because I have heard a lot about the Bosnian wars and the actions that took place in the early 1990's, and I wanted to find out more about the events that took place and why they happened. Also, a classmate of mine claims that he was there at the time and I am interested in knowing what he had to go through and the living style that many of them had to live. 

Some articles that I have found dealing with the Bosnian Genocide are below:

http://genocideinbosnia.blogspot.com/2006/-facts-about-war-in-bosnia.html

A few questions that I have about this topic is: How did this genocide begin? What caused this? Why was this genocide not as important as Rwanda? How did this massacre coin the term genocide with less dispute and discussion than the Rwandan genocide?
