Download or read book Transitional Justice and the Former Soviet Union written by Cynthia M. Horne and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-02-22 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the twenty-five years since the Soviet Union was dismantled, the countries of the former Soviet Union have faced different circumstances and responded differently to the need to redress and acknowledge the communist past and the suffering of their people. While some have adopted transitional justice and accountability measures, others have chosen to reject them; these choices have directly affected state building and societal reconciliation efforts. This is the most comprehensive account to date of post-Soviet efforts to address, distort, ignore, or recast the past through the use, manipulation, and obstruction of transitional justice measures and memory politics initiatives. Editors Cynthia M. Horne and Lavinia Stan have gathered contributions by top scholars in the field, allowing the disparate post-communist studies and transitional justice scholarly communities to come together and reflect on the past and its implications for the future of the region.

Book excerpt: This Pulitzer prize-winning photojournalist was able to witness the euphoria of many East Germans as they walked through the crumbling Berlin Wall in 1989. However, the ensuing years brought political, economic and social chaos to the countries of the former Soviet bloc. The divided nations of the past 50 years merged into one, and as the Iron Curtain melted Anthony Suau explored this upheaval with an impassioned curiosity.

This volume explores the common trends and differences in the responses of the new post-Soviet states to the problems of state-building in ethnically and regionally divided societies, focusing on the impact of ethnic and regional conflicts on post-communist transition and institutional development. The book will be essential reading for specialists and students alike who are interested in conflict regulation and post-Soviet politics.
