| Research Abstract |
This research project explored the question how post-conflict societies address re-building social order. Case studies have been conducted in South Africa and Cambodia. The former pursued reconciliation with the truth commission while the latter established the internationalized hybrid court to realise justice. Yet, both projects share dysfunctional status of social norm from the outset. Empirical analysis enables us to acknowledge significance of mobilisation as a criterion for evaluating effectiveness of transitional justice.
