How do societies at the national and international level try to
overcome historical injustices? What remedies did they develop to
do justice to victims of large scale atrocities? And even more
important: what have we learned from the implementation of these
so-called instruments of transitional justice in practice?Lawyers,
socials scientists and historians have published shelves full of
books and articles on how to confront the past through
international criminal tribunals, truth commissions, financial
compensation schemes and other instruments of retributive/punitive
and restorative justice. A serious problem continues to be that
broad interdisciplinary accounts that include both categories of
measures are still hardly available. With this volume a group of
international experts in the field endeavors to fill this gap, and
even more. By alternating historical overviews with critical
assessments this volume does not only offer an extensive
introduction to the world of transitional justice, but also food
for thought concerning the effectiveness of the remedies it offers
to face the past successfully.
