Covers a wide range of situations, and presents a broad range of sites where past injustices are addressed
Examines cases where peaceful ‘new beginnings’ have been declared after periods of violence
Addresses fundamental questions about transitions and justice in societies characterized by a high degree of external involvement and internal fragmentation
