Method:
Observations, key informant interviews among Liberian exile community in New York.
Main findings:
A sharp verdict on the transitional justice model “bequeathed to the world by South Africa's TRC and inherited by Liberia, one in which a promiscuous collection of vaguely defined ideas relating to truth, healing, and reconciliation is deployed to conceal pragmatic compromise”. Specifically, the TRC hearing the United States is described as an example of this model.
