Negotiating Transitional Justice: Firsthand Lessons from Colombia and Beyond

Autor Mark Freeman, Iván Orozco
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 ian 2020
The recent Colombian peace negotiations took the art and science of negotiating transitional justice to unprecedented levels of complexity. For decades, the Colombian government fought a bitter insurgency war against FARC guerrilla forces. After protracted negotiations, the two parties reached a peace deal that took account of the rights of victims. As first-hand participants in the talks, and principal advisers to the Colombia government, Mark Freeman and Iván Orozco offer a unique account of the mechanics through which accountability issues were addressed. Drawing from this case study and other global experiences, Freeman and Orozco offer a comprehensive theoretical and practical conception of what makes the 'devil's dilemma' of negotiating peace with justice implausible but feasible.

Recenzii

'This book is a rigorous, fascinating, and provocative analysis of the dramatic challenge faced when pursuing peace and, at the same time, accountability. The authors' robust, honest, and sometimes controversial reflections make this a must-read for those who want to understand the theory and practice of negotiating transitional justice and ending violent conflict. The lessons it offers can literally save lives.' Catalina Botero Marino, Dean of Law Faculty, Universidad de los Andes
'Transitional justice is a central issue in many peace talks, yet there is remarkably little literature focusing on how demands of accountability can be harmonised with political pragmatism. This book makes an original and important contribution, both in general theoretical terms and through the authors' firsthand account of the complex negotiation between the Colombian government and the FARC. I strongly recommend the book not only to scholars, but also to practitioners from the fields of mediation and transitional justice.' Christine Bell, University of Edinburgh
'What does it mean to negotiate justice and accountability issues inside a peace process? Drawing on their direct experience of the Colombian peace talks with the FARC, Freeman and Orozco have produced a book of exceptional intellectual honesty and mastery. Their ideas and insights could change the way diplomats, peacemakers, human rights activists, and warring factions of all sorts understand and deal with a key political dilemma of our time.' Thierry Cruvellier, Editor-in-Chief, JusticeInfo.net
'In this timely and seminal book, Freeman and Orozco address an issue at the heart of the current discussion on transitional justice in Colombia and beyond: How much justice - and what form - is needed to build lasting peace? This book should be required reading for anyone interested in tracing the development of the Colombian transitional justice model as well as in understanding the tough political discussions that accompanied this process.' Angelika Rettberg, Universidad de los Andes
'This book takes a unique approach in that it is divided into two distinct components, each written primarily by one of the two authors. The first part (by Freeman, Institute for Integrated Transitions, Spain) is a comprehensive overview of the issues surrounding negotiating justice in the context of a peace process. Freeman provides an excellent framework for understanding the topic, so this section will be particularly useful for undergraduates. The second part (by Orozco, Universidad de los Andes, Colombia) includes essays on the recently concluded Colombian peace process, in which both authors were involved as independent advisors. The book focuses on issues of justice but offers much more than that … This accessible book will be a valuable addition to the literature on peace, conflict, human rights, international law, and Latin American politics.' A. G. Reiter, Choice
