Building a future on peace and justice: Studies on Transitional Justice, Conflict Resolution and Development The Nuremberg Declaration on Peace and Justice

There has been definitive progress in a world in which blanket amnesties weregranted at times with little hesitation. There is a growing understanding that accountability has pragmatic as well as principled arguments in its favour. Practical arguments as much as shifts in the norms have created a situation inwhich the choice is increasingly seen as ‘which forms of accountability’ rather than a stark choice between peace and justice. It is socio-political transformation, not just an end to violence, that is needed to build sustainable peace. This book addresses these dilemmas through a thorough overview of the current state of legal obligations; discussion of the need for a holistic approachincluding development; analysis of the implications of the coming into force of the ICC; and a series of ‘hard’ case studies on internationalized and localapproaches devised to navigate the tensions between peace and justice. Practical and conceptual clarity for options and agendas to make transitional justice approaches accessible without disrupting fragile peace processes
