Chrisje Brants, Professor of Criminal Law and Procedure; Antoine Hol, Professor of Jurisprudence and Legal Philosophy; Dina Siegel, Professor of Criminology, all at Utrecht University, The Netherlands.<p>'The book can be recommended as a collection of well researched topics, whose authors use different methodological approaches, sources, and perspectives showing the complexity of memory production. As it avoids isolating one state or region, the book offers valuable insights into global processes of transitional justice, memorializations and memory works.’ H-Soz-u-Kult</p><p>‘A distinguished group of authors critically prise open images of transitional justice, with rich insights on mediated memory, music and theatre. Some brilliant re-framings of rituals of transition are in store for the reader.’<br />John Braithwaite, Australian National University, Australia</p><p>'An innovative, multidisciplinary perspective on transitional justice that makes a persuasive argument for adopting a more holistic approach to addressing "the wrongs of the past". This is a must read for anyone who is interested in reaching a more comprehensive understanding of these injustices and their existential meaning.'<br />C. Ronald Huff, University of California, Irvine, USA and past-president, The American Society of Criminology</p><p>‘This book is about justice with a difference; justice which transcends legal procedures and is sensitive to memories, rituals and artistic expression. Beautifully written and with a deep understanding of its subject, it is not only a source of knowledge, but also of wisdom. I would warmly recommend it.’<br />Katja Franko Aas, University of Oslo, Norway</p>
