Item type:Publication, Incommensurable worlds, irreparable wounds: Transitional justice politics and personal violent pasts in postconflict Peru(SAGE Publications Ltd, 2022-12-01)Reparation programmes in transitional justice processes imply that there are ways to repair social bonds, to dignify victims of violence, to reconstitute what is lost. But how does losing a relative translate into the twists and turns of a state social programme? Based on ethnographic research in the Peruvian Andes and the life history of a daughter of a Shining Path leader, this article explores the ways in which transitional justice discourses get translated into specific national reparation policies embedded in a series of mnemonic wars. These mnemonic wars imply different levels of confrontation, and invisibilization of subjects and citizenships. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Punishment and pardon: the use of international humanitarian law by the Special Jurisdiction for Peace in Colombia(Cambridge University Press, 2022-04-01)Transitional justice systems generally aim to achieve two goals. One is to bring the perpetrators of past atrocities to justice to ensure that they do not go unpunished, which involves the State fulfilling its duty to investigate, prosecute and punish serious human rights violations and breaches of international humanitarian law (IHL). The other is to bring about reconciliation to heal a divided society and achieve peace and stability. This normally requires the adoption of measures of clemency, such as granting amnesty, so that those who took part in the country's violent past can return to civilian life. The use of IHL is relevant in attaining both these goals because its complex nature means that it provides the legal basis for their implementation. However, this very complexity can mean that there are contradictions or complementarities between its characteristics. This article looks at the case of the Special Jurisdiction for Peace (JEP) in Colombia, showing how this transitional jurisdiction has used IHL as a legal basis both for investigating, prosecuting and punishing serious violations committed during the Colombian armed conflict and for granting amnesty to those who took part in the hostilities. These different uses by the JEP demonstrate that IHL is a flexible tool that can facilitate the process of delivering both justice and peace after a conflict has ended. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Voces en el silencio(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2023-11-13)This paper explores the effects of hospitality rites and the co-creation of common spaces as a means to achieve transitional justice in Peru, 20 years after the 1980–2000 internal armed conflict. It describes a tea ceremony in La Hoyada, a place used by the Army as a clandestine burial ground. A foreign act of hospitality breaks the temporality of the site; mindful actions create silence, and the voices of people are better heard. This work describes the development of an incipient methodology, an intimate language of presence, and how video recordings of participants’ testimonies captured the feelings arising in a one-time silent event. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Reflections on Silence and Ritualised Hospitality(Routledge, 2023-01-01)This essay explores a hospitality rite as a contribution to transitional justice. It describes a tea ceremony (and a related video recording, focused on testimonies) in La Hoyada, a site used as a clandestine burial ground for people abducted, tortured, and killed during the internal armed conflict in Peru. A place of destruction acquires new significance as an unfamiliar ritual breaks the temporality of the site; mindful hospitality actions create silence, so the voices of people can be better heard.
