Review

Perhaps the most useful chapter in the book is the one examining reparatory justice. Teitel handles well the duality of reparations (The American Journal of International Law, Vol. 95, 2001)

"A valuable contribution to the growing body of scholarly literature."―Aryeh Neier, New York Review of Books

"Impressive....Teitel goes through the complex issues raised during transitional periods in an ambitious attempt to construct the language of a new jurisprudence. What is novel about Teitel's approach is the attempt to provide an overarching approach to understanding issues that arise in and out of transitional justice....[The book] is filled with fresh ideas and interesting, provoking perspectives....Essential reading for all those facing the complexities of transition in practice."―Times Higher Education Supplement
