This book explores the practical and theoretical opportunities as well as the challenges raised by the expansion of transitional justice into new and aparadigmatic' cases. The book defines transitional justice as the pursuit of accountability, recognition and/or disruption and applies an actor-centric analysis focusing on justice actors' intentions of and responses to transitional justice. It offers a typology of different transitional justice contexts ranging from societies experiencing ongoing conflict to consolidated democracies, and includes chapters from all types of aparadigmatic contexts. This covers transitional justice in states with contested political authority, shared political authority, and consolidated political authority. The transitional justice initiatives explored by the wide range of contributors are those of Afghanistan, Belgium, France, Greenland/Denmark, Libya, Syria, Turkey/Kurdistan, UK/Iraq, US, and Yemen. Through these aparadigmatic case studies, the book develops a new framework that, appropriate to its expanding reach, allows us to understand the practice of transitional justice in a more context-sensitive, bottom-up, and actor-oriented way, which leaves room for the complexity and messiness of interventions on the ground. The book will appeal to scholars and practitioners in the broad field of transitional justice, as represented in law, criminology, politics, conflict studies and human rights. --

The post-war reconstruction effort in Ukraine might be the largest post-war rebuilding effort in modern history. Both the United States and Europe have begun to plan for Ukraine's success. The authors of this report examine previous post-war and post–natural disaster reform and reconstruction efforts to draw lessons and inform policymakers. They also discuss security arrangements, which will be essential for the success of reconstruction. While reconstruction in Iraq and Afghanistan was more recent, Ukraine is fundamentally different. Instead, more-relevant lessons can be drawn from the truly transformative reform and reconstruction efforts in Western Europe following World War II, Central and Eastern Europe following the Cold War, and the Western Balkans following the wars in the former Yugoslavia. In all of these cases, the United States provided seed money and security, and the Europeans provided the bulk of the funding and advanced the process of European integration.

Historical evolution and processes of cultural and economic globalization have brought out relevant and frightening risks on a global scale: from urbicide and violence to climate change and an increase in natural disasters, but also an enormous widening of economic and social inequality. Today, humanity as a whole is facing epochal challenges that require a radical metamorphosis of inhabited spaces. Cities Under Pressure illustrates a new design paradigm, an open intervention system that seeks the establishment of a dynamic equilibrium that is continuously renegotiated. Cities Under Pressure imagines and defines new urban environments that abandon a rigid design scheme in favor of growing evolutionary mechanisms capable of embodying the ongoing sustainable transition, so as to guarantee a resilient and peaceful future.

Comment terminer les crises ? Comment résoudre les tensions qu’elles ont fait naître tout en préparant une paix durable ? À travers une approche comparative croisant des aires géographiques et des disciplines différentes, cet ouvrage propose une réflexion sur l’après-crise, dont la gestion constitue un enjeu majeur pour les sociétés marquées par les héritages de conflits armés – parfois toujours en cours – ou d’affrontements sociaux. Les contributions sur la justice sociale ou la justice transitionnelle posent la question de la place du droit dans la résolution de conflits et de la difficulté à mettre en place une solution concrète. Les objets de travaux de terrain et les différentes approches mettent en lumière les forces et les limites des politiques actuelles. L’après-conflit, c’est aussi la reconstruction de la mémoire et les confrontations entre différents acteurs. Médias et institutions sont-ils capables d’œuvrer pour la paix ? Le veulent-ils vraiment ? L’ouvrage est complété par deux témoignages, l’un photographique, l’autre littéraire, qui permettent de mieux saisir les problématiques de l’après dans leur complexité.
