Yet there is remarkably limited research on the interactions among local, national, and international transitional justice institutions.

This book makes a crucial and timely contribution to the examination of these pluralist responses to atrocity at a juncture when holistic approaches are rapidly becoming the policy norm. It focuses on the practices of Rwanda's post-genocide criminal courts.
