Following the 'Arab Spring' uprisings in the Middle East and North
Africa, many had high hopes not only for democratisation but also
for transitional justice to address the myriad abuses that had
taken place in the region, both during the uprisings and for
decades prior to them. Protesters had called not only for removal
of corrupt and abusive leaders, but also for the protection of
human rights more generally, including socio-economic rights as
well as civil and political rights. Despite these hopes, most of
the transitions in the region have stalled, along with the
possibility of transitional justice. This volume is the first to
look at this process and brings together leading experts in the
fields of human rights and transitional justice, and in the
history, politics and justice systems of countries such as Egypt,
Tunisia, Libya, Algeria, Bahrain and Morocco. While these countries
have diverse histories, political institutions, and experiences
with accountability, most have experienced non-transition, stalled
transition, or political manipulation of transitional justice
measures, highlight--ing the limits of such mechanisms. These
studies should inform reflection not only on the role of
transitional justice in the region, but also on challenges to its
operation more generally.
