Transitional Justice: How Emerging Democracies Reckon with Former Regimes, Volume 3Neil J. Kritz "As nations move from repression to democracy, or from war to peace, the legacy of past abuses can be a heavy burden. How can a society peacefully integrate both the personnel and the victims of the former regime? How can it achieve both justice and reconciliation? USIP helped shape the field of "transitional justice" and its three-volume collection Transitional Justice: How Emerging Democracies Reckon with Former Regimes is a path breaking resource for practitioners and policymakers grappling with these difficult problems in numerous countries. The volumes cover legal, political and philosophical perspectives, and draws upon the experience of more than 20 transitions from World War II through the end of the century." --Publisher. |
