More than twenty years after the fall of communism, many countries
in Central and Eastern Europe are still seeking truth and justice
for the repression suffered under communist rule. This search has
been particularly notable in the Baltic states, given the three
countries' histories as both former Soviet republics and later
member-states of the European Union. On the one hand, the legacy of
Stalinist oppression was more severe in these countries than
elsewhere in Central Europe, but on the other hand much of this
past could more easily be externalized onto the former Soviet Union
(and by extension Russia) following re-independence. Transitional
and Retrospective Justice in the Baltic States develops a novel
conceptual framework in order to understand the politics involved
with transitional and retrospective justice, and then applies this
outline to the Baltic states to analyze more systematic patterns of
truth- and justice-seeking in the post-communist world.
