Overview

This book examines transitional justice in Albania, Kosovo, and North Macedonia, three Balkan countries navigating the challenges of reckoning with past human rights violations while building democratic institutions. Analyzing truth commissions, war crimes tribunals, reparations programs, and institutional reforms, it assesses the effectiveness of these mechanisms in fostering justice, reconciliation, and political stability. Drawing on case studies, expert interviews, and policy analyses, the book provides a comprehensive evaluation of transitional justice in post-conflict and post-communist societies. It considers the successes and limitations of different approaches, offering insights into their impact on governance, accountability, and social cohesion. A resource for scholars, policymakers, and practitioners, this book contributes to ongoing debates on justice and reconciliation, providing a nuanced understanding of transitional justice in the Balkans and its broader implications.
