After periods of conflict and authoritarianism, educational institutions often need to be reformed or rebuilt. But in settings where education has been used to support repressive policies and human rights violations, or where conflict and abuses have resulted in lost educational opportunities, legacies of injustice may pose significant challenges to effective reform. Peacebuilding and development perspectives, which normally drive the reconstruction agenda, pay little attention to the violent past. Transitional Justice and Education: Learning Peace presents the findings of a research project of the International Center for Transitional Justice on the relationship between transitional justice and education in peacebuilding contexts. The book examines how transitional justice can shape the reform of education systems by ensuring programs are sensitive to the legacies of the past, how it can facilitate the reintegration of children and youth into society, and how education can engage younger generations in the work of transitional justice.
Clara Ramirez-Barat is the director of the Educational Policies Program at the Auschwitz Institute for Peace and Reconciliation. For the past six years her work has focused on the intersection between transitional justice and the public sphere (media, culture, and education), with a focus on prevention. Roger Duthie is a senior associate in the research unit at ICTJ, where he has managed multiyear research projects examining how transitional justice relates to education, forced displacement, and development. His publications include two previous edited volumes on transitional justice.
