After Violence: Transitional Justice, Peace, and Democracy examines
the effects of transitional justice on the development of peace and
democracy. Anticipated contributions of transitional justice
mechanisms are commonly stated in universal terms, with little
regard for historically specific contexts. Yet a truth commission,
for example, will not have the same function in a society torn by
long-term civil war or genocide as in a society emerging from
authoritarian repression. Addressing trials, reparations, truth
commissions, and amnesties, the book systematically addresses the
experiences of four very different contemporary transitional
justice cases: post-authoritarian Uruguay and Peru and
post-conflict Rwanda and Angola. Its analysis demonstrates that
context is a crucial determinant of the impact of transitional
justice processes, and identifies specific contextual obstacles and
limitations to these processes. The book will be of much interest
to scholars in the fields of transitional justice and
peacebuilding, as well as students generally concerned with human
rights and democratisation.
