{"product_id":"localizing-transitional-justice-rosalind-shaw-9780804761505","title":"Localizing Transitional Justice: Interventions and Priorities After Mass Violence","description":"\u003cp\u003eThrough war crimes prosecutions, truth commissions, purges of perpetrators, reparations, and memorials, transitional justice practices work under the assumptions that truth telling leads to reconciliation, prosecutions bring closure, and justice prevents the recurrence of violence. But when local responses to transitional justice destabilize these assumptions, the result can be a troubling disconnection between international norms and survivors' priorities.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eLocalizing Transitional Justice\u003c\/i\u003e traces how ordinary people respond to--and sometimes transform--transitional justice mechanisms, laying a foundation for more locally responsive approaches to social reconstruction after mass violence and egregious human rights violations. Recasting understandings of culture and locality prevalent in international justice, this vital book explores the complex, unpredictable, and unequal encounter among international legal norms, transitional justice mechanisms, national agendas, and local priorities and practices. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rosalind Shaw\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0804761507\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780804761505\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Stanford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/23\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2010 pg. 154","brand":"Rosalind Shaw","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43926228271359,"sku":"9780804761505","price":32.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_54307310-18cd-4110-8ec8-7346acd6084c.jpg?v=1681081910","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/localizing-transitional-justice-rosalind-shaw-9780804761505","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
