Abstract

As a process aimed at dealing with the past in order to create suitable conditions for a sustainable peace, the priority of transitional justice policies has understandably been to attempt to tackle gross violations suffered by a part of the population. However these abuses are often the symptoms of deeper structures within societies, which are usually left unaddressed when implementing transitional justice policies. This panel explores how, beyond short-term objectives aimed at securing a negative peace, transitional justice policies and mechanisms need to include economic and socials rights as well as the reform of institutions and thus intersect with issues of long-term socio-political reconstruction and development.
