Transitional Justice Theories is the first volume to approach the\u00a0politically sensitive subject of post-conflict or post-authoritarian justice\u00a0<\/span>from a theoretical perspective. It combines contributions from distinguished\u00a0<\/span>scholars and practitioners as well as from emerging academics from different\u00a0<\/span>disciplines and provides an overview of conceptual approaches to the field.<\/span>
\nThe volume seeks to refine our understanding of transitional justice by\u00a0exploring often unarticulated assumptions that guide discourse and practice.\u00a0<\/span>To this end, it offers a wide selection of approaches from various\u00a0<\/span>theoretical traditions ranging from normative theory to critical theory. In\u00a0<\/span>their individual chapters, the authors explore the concept of transitional\u00a0<\/span>justice itself and its foundations, such as reconciliation, memory, and\u00a0<\/span>truth, as well as intersections, such as reparations, peace building, and\u00a0<\/span>norm compliance.<\/span><\/p>\n

This book will be of particular interest for scholars and students of law,\u00a0peace and conflict studies, and human rights studies. Even though highly\u00a0<\/span>theoretical, the chapters provide an easy read for a wide audience including\u00a0<\/span>readers not familiar with theoretical investigations.<\/span><\/p>\n
