| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This project explores how and why some countries in the Latin American region take more innovative measures on transitional justice while others do not. Based on the field work in Argentina, Mexico and Peru, the study concludes that the emergence of a government strongly motivated for human rights trials and promotion of the "memory," and its interaction with powerful human rights organizations, are crucial for the policy success. This study also points out the difficulty of sustaining such policy after a government change.
Beyond the theme on transitional justice, I also examined the policy-making patterns of labor policies and Mexican drug war. In the case of Mexico, the lack of substantial civil society participation is the most salient feature in common.
