Synopsis

The yearning for historical justice has become one of the defining features of our age. Governments, international bodies and civil society organisations address historical injustices through truth commissions, tribunals, official apologies and other transitional justice measures. Historians produce knowledge of past human rights violations, and museums, memorials and commemorative ceremonies try to keep that knowledge alive and remember the victims of injustices. In this book, researchers explore the various attempts to recover and remember the past as a means of addressing historic wrongs. This book was originally published as a special issue of Rethinking History.
