Transitional Justice
This new book by @kelly_Zvobgo makes a case that transitional justice is not shaped primarily by national governments and that it should be understood as a transnational process led by civil society groups, both domestic and international. It includes case studies of Guatemala, South Africa and Timor-Leste.

Justicia transicional
Este libro nuevo de @kelly_Zvobgo argumenta que la justicia transicional no está determinada principalmente por los gobiernos nacionales, sino que debe entenderse como un proceso transnacional liderado por organizaciones de la sociedad civil, tanto nacionales como internacionales. Incluye estudios de caso de Guatemala, Sudáfrica y Timor Oriental.
