Title
Resisting Transitional Justice in Revolutionary Tunisia: Hegemonic Justice and Noninstitutionalised Resistance |
Author(s)
Mullin, Corinna; Patel, Ian |
Abstract
This paper addresses transitional justice initiatives in Tunisia as they interact with revolutionary sentiment and commitment on the ground. Methodologically, it treats transitional justice as a site of contestation, involving transnational and domestic modes of power as well as noninstitutionalised forms of resistance. This paper will consider some of the short-comings of Tunisia's internationally sponsored transitional justice process thus far, with reference to accountability for former regime abuses and transformative redress for victims. The paper critically assesses the mechanisms by which the transitional justice regime has come to establish itself in Tunisia, as well as the various conflicts that have arisen between revolutionary commitments and transitional justice processes. Having "mapped" transitional justice initiatives in Tunisia, this paper concludes by considering acts of resistance and critique of transitional justice by various noninstitutionalised actors. |
