"Transitional Justice and Civil Society in the Balkans" covers
civil society engagements with transitional justice processes in
the Balkans. The Balkans are a region marked by the post-communist
and post-conflict transitional turmoil through which its countries
are going through.
This volume is intended to provide a comprehensive introduction to
research in transitional justice in this part of the world, mostly
written by local scholars. Transitional justice is ever-growing
field which responds to dilemmas over how successor regimes should
deal with past human rights abuses of their authoritarian
predecessors. The editors and author emphasize the relatively
unexplored and under-researched role of civil society groups and
social movements, such as local women s groups, the role of art and
community media and other grass-roots transitional justice
mechanisms and initiatives. Through specific case-studies, the
unique contribution of this volume is not only that it covers a
part of the world that is not adequately represented in
transitional justice field, but also that the volume is the first
project originally researched and written by experts and scholars
from the region or in collaboration with international scholars."
