What lessons can we learn from history, and more importantly: how?
This question is as commonplace as it is essential. Efficient
transitional justice policy evaluation requires, inter alia, an
historical dimension. What policy has or has not worked in the past
is an obvious key question. Nevertheless, history as a profession
remains somewhat absent in the multi-disciplinary field of
transitional justice. The idea that we should learn lessons from
history continues to create unease among most professional
historians. In his critical introduction, the editor investigates
the framework of this unease. At the core of this book are nine
national European case studies (post 1945, the 1970s dictatorships,
post 1989) which implement the true scholarly advantage of
historical research for the field of transitional justice: the
broad temporal space. All nine case studies tackle the longer-term
impact of their country's transitional justice policies. Two
comparative conclusions, amongst others by the internationally
renowned transitional justice specialist Luc Huyse, complete this
collection. This volume is a major contribution in the search for
synergies between the agenda of historical research and the rapidly
developing field of transitional justice.
