Reviews
"Bringing together some of the most notable voices in the field, this volume moves away from the often narrow focus of other treatments of transitional justice-situating and evaluating the effect of accountability mechanisms within a larger social, cultural, and political context." -- Ronald Slye * coauthor of International Criminal Law and Its Enforcement *
"This rich and interesting volume goes beyond the legal understanding of Transitional Justice in order to address the challenge of post-conflict societies. A valuable and important contribution to the current literature." -- Elazar Barkan * Columbia University *
"Chronicle of Higher Education weekly book list," by Nina C. Ayoub * Chronicle of Higher Education *
"With an extraordinary and impressively informative body of seminal scholarship by experts in the subject of transitional justice that is unreservedly recommended for both community and academic library collections, it should be noted for the personal reading lists of students, academia, social activists, and non-specialist general readers with an interest in the subject that Understanding the Age of Transitional Justice is also available in a paperback edition and in a digital book format." * Midwest Book Review *
