The Politics of Reparations and Apologies examines the evolution
and dynamics of reparation politics and justice. The volume
introduces the key concepts, theories, and terms associated with
social movements and in particular, the redress and reparation
movement (RRM). Drawing from RRMs that have their foundation in
World War II--the German genocides, the United States internments,
and the Japanese "comfort women" system-- the volume explores each
case study's relative success or failure in achieving its goals and
argues that there are overarching trends that can explain success
and failure more generally in the RRM movement. Using the backdrop
of international criminal law and normative concepts of
reparations, the volume establishes and analyzes the roles of
reparations and apologies in obtaining transitional justice. In
each case study, there is a detailed rundown of the political
actions that were attempted to obtain redress and reparation for
the victims, of how successful the attempts were, and of the
crucial factors which influenced the relative success or failure.
Crucially, the volume offers a comparative framework of the actions
that contribute to a successful outcome for transitional justice.
With the increasing normative expectation of justice in
post-conflict situations, this volume is a valuable resource for
researchers in international affairs, human rights, political
science, and conflict studies.
