Constructing Justice and Security After War
Scholars and practitioners now recognize that sustainable peace depends greatly on the establishment of effective, legitimate and rights-respecting systems of justice and internal security. But how can such systems be created after vicious wars?
This event will focus on findings from USIP’s newly published book, Constructing Justice and Security After War, edited by Charles Call. Based on insights gleaned from case studies of El Salvador, Guatemala, Haiti, South Africa, Rwanda, Bosnia, Kosovo and East Timor, the discussion will focus on what challenges arise for local and international actors involved in crafting new police forces and judicial systems.
