| Beschreibung: | Includes bibliographical references (p. 246-262) and index 1 - Human rights and nation-building -- - 2 - Technologies of truth : the TRC's truth-making machine -- - 3 - The politics of truth and human rights -- - 4 - Reconciliation through truth? -- - 5 - Reconciliation in society : religious values and procedural pragmatism -- - 6 - Vengeance, revenge and retribution -- - 7 - Reconciliation with a vengeance -- - 8 - Conclusions : human rights, reconciliation and retribution "The South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) was set up to deal with the human rights violations of apartheid during the years 1960-1994. However, as Wilson shows, the TRC's restorative justice approach to healing the nation did not always serve the needs of communities at a local level. Based on extended anthropological fieldwork, this book illustrates the impact of the TRC in urban African communities in the Johannesburg area. While a religious constituency largely embraced the Commission's religious-redemptive language of reconciliation, Wilson argues that the TRC had little effect on popular ideas of justice as retribution. This provocative study deepens our understanding of post-apartheid South Africa and the use of human rights discourse. It ends on a call for more cautious and realistic expectations about what human rights institutions can achieve in democratizing countries."--Jacket |

Wilson Cambridge Cambridge University Press 2001 1 Online-Ressource (xxi, 271 p.) txt rdacontent c rdamedia cr rdacarrier Cambridge studies in law and society Includes bibliographical references (p. 246-262) and index 1 - Human rights and nation-building -- - 2 - Technologies of truth : the TRC's truth-making machine -- - 3 - The politics of truth and human rights -- - 4 - Reconciliation through truth? -- - 5 - Reconciliation in society : religious values and procedural pragmatism -- - 6 - Vengeance, revenge and retribution -- - 7 - Reconciliation with a vengeance -- - 8 - Conclusions : human rights, reconciliation and retribution "The South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) was set up to deal with the human rights violations of apartheid during the years 1960-1994. However, as Wilson shows, the TRC's restorative justice approach to healing the nation did not always serve the needs of communities at a local level. Based on extended anthropological fieldwork, this book illustrates the impact of the TRC in urban African communities in the Johannesburg area. While a religious constituency largely embraced the Commission's religious-redemptive language of reconciliation, Wilson argues that the TRC had little effect on popular ideas of justice as retribution. This provocative study deepens our understanding of post-apartheid South Africa and the use of human rights discourse. It ends on a call for more cautious and realistic expectations about what human rights institutions can achieve in democratizing countries."--Jacket Afrique du Sud / Truth and Reconciliation Commission South Africa / Truth and Reconciliation Commission fast South Africa / Truth and Reconciliation Commission South Africa Truth and Reconciliation Commission Südafrika Truth and Reconciliation Commission (DE-588)5284488-2 gnd rswk-swf Since 1994 fast Geschichte 1995-1998 gnd rswk-swf Réconciliation / Aspect politique / Afrique du Sud Apartheid / Afrique du Sud Rétribution (Théologie) SOCIAL SCIENCE / Anthropology / Cultural bisacsh SOCIAL SCIENCE / Discrimination & Race Relations bisacsh SOCIAL SCIENCE / Minority Studies bisacsh Truth and Reconciliation Commission gtt Verzoening gtt Mensenrechten gtt Apartheid fast Political science fast Post-apartheid era fast Race relations fast Reconciliation / Political aspects fast Retribution fast Menschenrecht Politik Politische Wissenschaft Reconciliation Political aspects South Africa Apartheid South Africa Post-apartheid era South Africa Retribution Legitimation (DE-588)4114382-6 gnd rswk-swf Südafrika (Staat) Südafrika Truth and Reconciliation Commission (DE-588)5284488-2 b Legitimation (DE-588)4114382-6 s Geschichte 1995-1998 z 1\p DE-604 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe, Paperback 0-521-00194-3 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe, Paperback 978-0-521-00194-6 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe, Hardcover 978-0-521-80219-2 http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=312733 Aggregator Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
