描述 | This book investigates the road map or the transitional justice mechanisms that the.Ethiopian government chose to confront the gross human rights violations perpetrated.under the 17 years’ rule of the Derg, the dictatorial regime that controlled state power.from 1974 to 1991. Furthermore, the author extensively examines the prosecution of.politicide or genocide against political groups in Ethiopia..Dealing with the violent conflict, massacres, repressions and other mass atrocities of.the past is necessary, not for its own sake, but to clear the way for a new beginning..In other words, ignoring gross human rights violations and attempting to close the.chapter on an oppressive dictatorial past by choosing to let bygones be bygones, is no.longer a viable option when starting on the road to a democratic future. For unaddressed.atrocities and a sense of injustice would notonly continue to haunt a nation but.could also ignite similar conflicts in the future..So the question is what choices are available to the newly installed government when.confronting the evils of the past. There are a wide array of transitional mechanisms.to choose from, but there is no “one size fits all” mechanism. |
