Description

The field of transitional justice has expanded rapidly since the term first emerged in the late 1990s. Its intellectual development has, however, tended to follow practice rather than drive it. Addressing this gap, Violence, Law and the Impossibility of Transitional Justice pursues a comprehensive theoretical inquiry into the foundation and evolution of transitional justice. Critically considering how different conceptualizations of transitional justice have influenced its ability to deliver the underlying goal of establishing lasting peace, the book provides a deconstruction account of the role of law in transition.
