Results of the 2007 Nuremberg Conference on Peace and Justice:
Tensions between peace and justice have long been debated by
scholars, practitioners and agencies including the United Nations,
and both theory and policy must be refined for very practical
application in situations emerging from violent conflict or
political repression. Specific contexts demand concrete decisions
and approaches aimed at redress of grievance and creation of
conditions of social justice for a non-violent future. There has
been definitive progress in a world in which blanket amnesties were
granted at times with little hesitation. There is a growing
understanding that accountability has pragmatic as well as
principled arguments in its favour. Practical arguments as much as
shifts in the norms have created a situation in which the choice is
increasingly seen as "which forms of accountability" rather than a
stark choice between peace and justice. It is socio-political
transformation, not just an end to violence, that is needed to
build sustainable peace. This book addresses these dilemmas through
a thorough overview of the current state of legal obligations;
discussion of the need for a holistic approach including
development; analysis of the implications of the coming into force
of the ICC; and a series of "hard" case studies on
internationalized and local approaches devised to navigate the
tensions between peace and justice.
