"Paul Gready has written a well-researched, thoughtful and unique volume.
His assertion that those working on transitional justice and human rights must do more to address the structural poverty and violence which are the enduring legacies of the past - including through greater attention to realizing economic, social and cultural rights for all - is an important message for the 21st century. This book offers a wealth of insights for those working in a range of fields including, but going well beyond, transitional justice." - Mary Robinson, President of Realizing Rights: The Ethical Globalization Initiative; former President of Ireland
"This superb book provides an insightful, provocative and timely critique of the strengths and weaknesses of transitional justice mechanisms, through the prism of truth commissions. In recent years transitional justice mechanisms have spread somewhat promiscuously and have been asked to take on a rapidly expanding array of tasks. But too little attention has been paid to coherence, manageability, or the deeper assumptions underpinning the process. This book analyses those shortcomings critically but constructively and provides important guidelines for the future." - Philip Alston, John Norton Pomeroy Professor of Law, New York University School of Law
"The Era of Transitional Justice is a brilliant inquiry into the sensitive domain of transitional justice given concreteness by a focus on post-apartheid South Africa's struggle for truth and reconciliation, but it is more than this. What really makes this book indispensable is its exceptionally clarifying conceptual framework for thought and action across the whole spectrum of human rights/justice concerns." - Richard Falk, Research Professor, Global Studies, UCSB
"By focusing on the development of a transitional justice ‘industry,’ Gready not only interrogates the pathways of power within the field (such as the ways in which the production and transmission of knowledge on rights and justice may mimic global power inequities) but also demonstrates the power of the industry to shape conceptions of justice and the contours of transition." - Zinaida Miller, Harvard Law School, USA for The International Journal of Transitional Justice (Vol. 7, 2013, 370–380)
Paul Gready is Professor of Applied Human Rights and Director of the Centre for Applied Human Rights at the University of York (UK).
