By offering a novel perspective on impunity-fighting tactics in (re)emerging democracies that share historical and political similarities, Justice and Memory after Dictatorship represents a fresh addition to the international criminal law literature. In presenting the different models of reconciliation with past dictatorships, it shows how political ideologies and judicial arguments intertwine. Finally, as a case study of emerging, peripheral democracies, this book is also an important contribution to the transitional justice literature.
