Tutorial 1: 3:10-4pm or Tutorial 2: 4:10-5pm, 1.3 Lister, Lister Learning and Teaching Centre. Course Description Since the 1990s, transitional justice has become a central element in efforts to come to terms with a violent past in a number of countries. Especially in sub-saharan Africa there have been experiments with a variety of different transitional justice mechanisms including truth commissions, international criminal tribunals and localized institutions supposedly more in tune with African culture and values. This course examines the whole range of transitional justice mechanisms from a social-scientific perspective, exploring crucial issues such as their actual functioning and local legitimacy. The course addresses the key debates that have shaped the field of transitional justice. For a long time the field has been defined by the truth versus justice debate, whether truth commissions or criminal trials are the best means to realize closure and reconciliation, and the peace versus justice debate, whether criminal trial jeopardize the fragile peace and negotiations during a transition period. Recently, these discussions have been partly eclipsed by efforts to localize transitional justice, creating institutions more in tune with local values and culture. This course has three aims: (1) to provide students with a critical understanding of key theoretical, conceptual and policy debates related to transitional justice, (2) to examine how these debates shape developmental and humanitarian interventions, and (3) to discuss the actual functioning of these institutions in their socio-cultural and political context. The course adopts an inter-disciplinary perspective drawing on legal studies, political science, social and cultural anthropology and African Studies. Teaching will make use of case studies of transitional justice in Latin America, South Africa, West Africa, Uganda and Rwanda. Learning Outcomes - show knowledge of academic and policy debates about transitional justice in context in relation to humanitarian and development interventions. - critically understand the theories, concepts and the practice of the whole range of transitional justice mechanisms aimed at realizing new beginnings after widespread violence and oppression. - show detailed knowledge of case studies examining specific transitional justice mechanisms in Africa and elsewhere. - critically evaluate and analyse the empirical evidence on the operation of truth commissions, criminal trials and other forms of transitional justice. - critically understand the challenges and realities of work in the field of international development, legal reform and humanitarian assistance. 2

4 WEEK 1 (15 January): THE HISTORY OF TRANSITIONAL JUSTICE How should we deal with the abuses and atrocities of past regimes? Should we seek to hold people to account or forgive in the name of reconciliation? What is the relationship between truth and justice? In the last thirty years a specific set of institutions have become associated with what has become known as transitional justice, with truth and reconciliation commissions and criminal tribunals at the fore. This lecture presents an overview over the history of transitional justice and the problem of effecting a new beginning eschewing violence.

WEEK 3 (29 January): TRUTH-TELLING AND NATIONAL RECONCILIATION Truth commissions have been established to serve as alternative, quasi-juridical alternatives to amnesty for perpetrators of crimes, on the one hand, and criminal trials, on the other hand. The have the task to establish accountability and national reconciliation by producing an authoritative historical record of crimes and human rights violations. This week examines the model and its dissemination, the ideas that have been driving the set-up, mandate and work of transitional justice institutions in general. Chapman, A.R. and P. A.

WEEK 4 (5 February): INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL JUSTICE Since the late twentieth century there has a been a growing sense that some crimes are so heinous that the international community has a responsibility to prosecute those responsible no matter where the crimes took place. This lecture examines the various international criminal tribunals and their efforts to hold perpetrators of mass atrocity accountable. It will focus on the debate about the suitability of international criminal in the context of international criminal justice and the interplay between the tribunals internal dynamics and international politics? 5

WEEK 5 (12 February): LOCALIZING TRANSITIONAL JUSTICE International criminal justice is often seen as aloof and far removed from local concerns and concepts of justice. In response, there have been calls to strengthen African community-based institutions to deal with the perpetrators of violence. But are these neo-traditional and localized forms of transitional justice really better suited to deal with human rights violations and war crimes? Are they really manifestations of African justice or rather inventions of well-meaning Western NGOs? These and other general questions surrounding attempts to localize transitional justice will be addressed in this week s lecture. Shaw, R. and L.

7 WEEK 6: February 19-23, Flexible Learning Week WEEK 7 (26 February): INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL JUSTICE AND RECONCILIATION IN BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA (with Dr Aitchison, School of Law, University of Edinburgh) When the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) was set up during the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina, a number of claims were made for what the court might achieve in terms of peace, justice and reconciliation. More than twenty years have passed, giving us the opportunity to assess the achievements of the court, its relation to other dimensions of transitional justice in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and remaining needs of justice and transition in the country. These will provide the focus for today s lecture and seminar.

WEEK 9 (12 March): TRANSITIONAL JUSTICE IN BURUNDI AND RWANDA: CONTRASTING EXPERIENCES OF FALSE TWINS (with Dr Jamar, School of Law, University of Edinburgh) Burundi pledged to put in place truth-seeking and judicial mechanisms to address the legacies of four decades of violence in None of these mechanisms has yet been fully implemented. Even before a political crisis emerged in 2015, most scholars assessing transitional justice in Burundi agreed that there were limited prospects for accountability. The lecture will unpack the socio-political dynamics that impact on transitional justice in Burundi and will underline how crucial challenges were emanating from both local and global factors.

WEEK 10 (19 March): THE BITTERNESS OF WAR: SIERRA LEONE and LIBERIA After the end of the civil war in 2002, two transitional justice mechanisms have operated in Sierra Leone: a truth commission and an international criminal court, the Special Court for Sierra Leone. In Liberia, there has been a heated debate about holding accountable perpetrators of crimes committed during the civil war but attempts to establish a criminal tribunal have met strong resistance by former warlords who are represented in the national assembly. The government established with international support a truth commission that documented the crimes committed by the various factions.

10 WEEK 11 (26 March): CONTESTING JUSTICE AND RECONCILIATION: THE PEACE PROCESS IN COLOMBIA The lecture examines the current attempt to achieve peace and reconciliation in Colombia. The country has experienced a long-running insurgency by Marxist guerrilla groups that has resulted in bloodshed and very high levels of violence over decades. Paramilitary groups that were ostensibly set up to counter the insurgency in league with the military have also committed large-scale violence against the civilian population. After a protracted process that resulted in the demobilization of the paramilitary groups since 2003 the government and the main rebel group, the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC), signed a peace deal in 2016 that is supposed to bring lasting peace and reconciliation to the country.
