Zusammenfassung:"This book constitutes a tour de force, capturing the essence of the TRC debate, while posing a set of questions with which South Africa is likely to wrestle for some time to come. Indeed, it is intended to provoke debate rather than provide simple answers to complex questions. This makes it a useful book for teaching purposes, as well as for those interested in transitional politics." "A number of different voices are heard, all seeking to provoke practical ways forward for a nation that in the early 1990s was teetering on the brink of collapse. The pertinent question posed by this book is: "Where does South Africa go in the post TRC period?" Equally important is the question: "Does the TRC model provide a viable alternative to prosecution for other countries in transition from oppressive rule to a society commited to human rights and the rule of law?""--BOOK JACKET.
