The aftermath of modern conflicts, deeply rooted in political,
economic and social structures, leaves pervasive and often
recurring legacies of violence. Addressing past injustice is
therefore fundamental not only for societal well-being and peace,
but also for future conflict prevention. In recent years, truth and
reconciliation commissions have become important but contentious
mechanisms for conflict resolution and reconciliation. This book
fills a significant gap, examining the importance of context within
transitional justice and peace-building. It lays out long-term and
often unexpected indirect effects of formal and informal justice
processes. Offering a novel conceptual understanding of 'procedural
reconciliation' on the societal level, it features an in-depth
study of commissions in Peru and Sierra Leone, providing a critical
analysis of the contribution and challenges facing transitional
justice in post-conflict societies. It will be of interest to
scholars and students of comparative politics, international
relations, human rights and conflict studies.
