Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. In the twenty-first century, fighting impunity has become both the rallying cry and a metric of progress for human rights. The new emphasis on criminal prosecution represents a fundamental change in the positions and priorities of students and practitioners of human rights and transitional justice: it has become almost unquestionable common sense that criminal punishment is a legal, political, and pragmatic imperative for addressing human rights violations. This book challenges that common sense. It does so by documenting and critically analyzing the trend toward an anti-impunity norm in a variety of institutional and geographical contexts, with an eye toward the interaction between practices at the global and local levels. Together, the chapters demonstrate how this laser focus on anti-impunity has created blind spots in practice and in scholarship that result in a constricted response to human rights violations, a narrowed conception of justice, and an impoverished approach to peace. Aimed at scholars, students, and practitioners of human rights and transitional justice, this volume presents and critiques the international human rights movement's focus on fighting impunity through criminalization in the twenty-first century. It considers the perspectives of multiple disciplines and takes into account a variety of institutional and geographical frameworks. This item is printed on demand.
