Telling the Truths: Truth Telling and Peace Building in Post-Conflict Societies (The RIREC Project on Post-Accord Peace Building) - Softcover
Synopsis
Confronting the past has become an established norm for countries undergoing transitions from violence to peace, from authoritarianism to democracy, or both. This book draws from two bodies of literature―peace building and transitional justice―to examine whether truth-telling mechanisms can contribute to sustainable peace and, if so, how and under what conditions. The authors approach these questions by examining whether truth telling contributes to the following elements, all of which are deemed to be constitutive of sustainable peace: reconciliation, human rights, gender equity, restorative justice, the rule of law, the mitigation of violence, and the healing of trauma.
While the transitional-justice literature appears to have grasped the importance of truth telling for securing sustainable peace, few studies have undertaken empirical analysis and evaluations of the long-term impact of such mechanisms. Contributors to this interdisciplinary volume―from the fields of political science, law, anthropology, psychology, philosophy, and theology―accomplish that by closely examining how societies emerging from violence must in some way examine, acknowledge, and account for violence committed in the past in order to move forward.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. 316 pp. with bibliography and index. Slight edgewear with minor curling at lower front corner of cover and shallow diagonal crease at lower back corner. "This collection demonstrates the scholarship of transitional justice and truth-telling structures is reaching a new stage of maturity. This interdisciplinary group of scholars and practitioners confront and problematize a number of aspirational assumptions found in the discourse between both scholars and policy-makers about the utility of truth commissions. The authors explicitly question the value of truth-telling for countries emerging from protracted conflicts, call for modest expectations of any single attempt to hasten reconciliation, and present nuanced interpretations of the complexities of truth-telling and peace building?. [They] discuss cases and raise questions and hypotheses that can inspire a new research agenda on the relationship between truth and peace." - Human Rights and Human Welfare.
