'Cyanne E. Loyle explores why transnational justice, even while it 'works' has often failed to ensure that states are held accountable for crimes against their own citizens. Even with widespread diffusion of transitional justice mechanisms, Loyle shows us how and why it is fundamental to pay attention to whose justice is served. Beautifully written and theoretically insightful, Escaping Justice illuminates not only transitional justice, but a central and enduring problem in efforts to defend human security.' Susan D. Hyde, Robson Professor of Political Science, University of California, Berkeley
