The first is a growing critique of truth commissions as being unresponsive to the socio-economic needs of transitional societies as part of growing criticism of transitional justice as a whole. The second is the increasing use, salience, professionalism and ambition of truth commissions. Thus, the book is published at a time when truth commissions are being both doubted and reified like never before. In this context, the book's purpose is to understand the impact and legacy of these institutions over the past fifty years. Bringing together many prominent voices on the topic, this book investigates what kind of impact and legacy (possibly 100) truth commissions have had on the societies in which they have taken place, and for future truth commissions the world over"--Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Truth commissions. 700 1 $a Sarkin-Hughes, Jeremy, $e editor. 830 0 $a Series on transitional justice ; $v 24. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231018022717.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=472B05841B1B11EAA846F92397128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
