This volume explores the futures of transitional justice by presenting its multiple pasts and presents across nearly half a century. It canvasses the legacies of achievements and failures, of high hopes and expectations, and equally of disappointment and disillusion across a range of institutions, including the International Criminal Court, global regions and local settings. The authors critically assess a range of different transitional justice mechanisms including prosecutions, reparations, truth-seeking, and institutional reform, as well as individual and public apologies for grave breaches of human rights. Their focus on local conditions foregrounds actors and networks, politics and the political in transitional justice processes. The book presents evidence, critical facts and analyses through a multidisciplinary lens, featuring criminologists, international criminal law scholars, political scientists, sociologists, social psychologists, and anthropologists. It combines theoretical and empirical contributions to achieve fresh perspectives on transitional justice. The first part interrogates transitional justice's impact. The second examines how transitional justice mechanisms are embedded within social and political structures. The third explores voice and participation in transitional justice discourses and practices, identifying key lessons for the future. By integrating diverse disciplinary perspectives with both theoretical frameworks and empirical evidence, this comprehensive volume offers valuable insights into how societies address past traumas and (re)gain a future. The book serves as an essential resource for researchers, practitioners, and students seeking to explore innovative research avenues in transitional justice and understand the complex dynamics of post-conflict and post-authoritarian justice processes.

Transitional justice is usually associated with international criminal courts and tribunals, but criminal justice is merely one way of dealing with the legacy of conflict and atrocity. Justice is not only a matter of law. It is a process of making sense of the past and accepting the possibility of a shared future together, although perpetrators, victims and bystanders may have very different memories and perceptions, experiences and expectations. This book goes further than providing a legal analysis of the effectiveness of transitional justice and presents a wider perspective. It is a critical appraisal of the different dimensions of the process of transitional justice that affects the imagery and constructions of past experiences and perceptions of conflict. Examining hidden histories of atrocities, public trials and memorialization, processes and rituals, artistic expressions and contradictory perceptions of past conflicts, the book constructs what transitional justice and the imagery involved can mean for a better understanding of the processes of justice, truth and reconciliation. In transcending the legal, although by no means denying the significance of law, the book also represents a multidisciplinary, holistic approach to justice and includes contributions from criminal and international lawyers, cultural anthropologists, criminologists, political scientists and historians

Transparency is a fundamental principle of justice. A cornerstone of the rule of law, it allows for public engagement and for democratic control of the decisions and actions of both the judiciary and the justice authorities. This book looks at the question of transparency within the framework of transitional justice. Bringing together scholars from across the disciplinary spectrum, the collection analyses the issue from socio-legal, cultural studies and practitioner perspectives. Taking a three-part approach, it firstly discusses basic principles guiding justice globally before exploring courts and how they make justice visible. Finally, the collection reviews the interface between law, transitional justice institutions and the public sphere.

This book contains original essays by a distinguished group of jurists from six different European countries confronting the increasing range of legal and philosophical issues arising from the relationship between privacy and the criminal law. The collection is particularly timely in light of the incorporation into English law of the European Convention on Human Rights. It compares legal cultures and underlying assumptions with regard to the private sphere,personal autonomy and the supposed justifications for State interference through criminalization and the implementation of substantive criminal law. The book moves from treatment of general ideas like the relationship between sovereignty, the nation-state and substantive criminal law in the new European context, (with its concomitant aspiration towards the establishment of transnational morality) to more detailed consideration of specific areas of substantive law and procedure, viewed from a range of perspectives. Areas considered include euthanasia, surrogacy, female genital mutilation and sado-masochism.
