Existing memory studies literature has tended to focus on
commemorative sites and dates while transitional justice
scholarship has primarily centered on truth commissions, trials,
and reparations. This book explores the interaction between memory
and transitional justice and develops a theoretical framework for
bringing these two fields of study together through the concept of
critical junctures. Focusing on post-dictatorship Argentina and
Uruguay, Francesca Lessa uses critical junctures to track and
explain moments of change. She traces and analyzes across time the
dynamic evolution of and shifts in transitional justice policies
and the emergence and replacement of dominant memory narratives in
the context of enduring struggles for justice and against
impunity.
