Truth commissions, official apologies and reparations are just some
of the transitional justice mechanisms embraced by established
democracies. This groundbreaking work of political theory explains
how these forms of state redress repair the damage state wrongdoing
inflicts upon political legitimacy. Richly illustrated with
real-life examples, the book's 'legitimating theory' explains the
connections, and the conflicts, between the transitional practice
of administrative, corrective and restorative justice. The book
shows how political responses to state wrongdoing are part of a
larger transitional history of the post-War 'rights revolution' in
the settler democracies of Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the
United States. The result is an incisive theoretical exploration
that not only explains the rectificatory work of established
democracies but also provides new ways to think about the broader
field of transitional justice.
