Klappentext The contributors analyze the processes, products, and efficacy of a number of transitional justice mechanisms. Adler has gathered leading specialists to scrutinize the responses to and effects of violent pasts and to provide new perspectives for understanding and applying transitional justice mechanisms in an effort to stop the recycling of old repressions into new ones. Zusammenfassung Since the 1980s, an array of legal and non-legal practices have been developed to support post-repressive, post-authoritarian, and post-conflict societies in dealing with their past. Contributors to this volume analyse the processes, products, and efficacy of transitional justice mechanisms and look at how genocide, political violence, and historical injustices are being institutionally addressed.
