International Courts and Mass Atrocity : Narratives of War and Justice in Croatia Paperback / softback
by Ivor Sokolic
Part of the Memory Politics and Transitional Justice series
Paperback / softback
Description
The extra-legal effects of international and domestic war crimes trials continue to puzzle researchers and practitioners.
In the former Yugoslav states, the legacy of conflict and issues of transitional justice remains central in politics, society and culture.
This book provides a new theoretical and methodological approach to one of these puzzles: why universal human rights norms become distorted or undermined when they reach local publics.
It investigates the social and cultural contexts that transitional justice processes take place in by looking at how emotional everyday narratives can hamper the spread of norms in society.
In Croatia, these narratives define how the public understands the rule of law, history and minority rights.
