Despite an extensive literature around dealing with the past in Northern Ireland, as well as a substantial body of scholarship on disappearances in other national contexts, there has been little scholarly scrutiny of disappearances in post-conflict Northern Ireland. Although the Good Friday Agreement brought relative peace to Northern Ireland, no provision was made for the establishment of some form of overarching truth and reconciliation commission aimed at comprehensively addressing the legacy of violence. Nevertheless, a mechanism to recover the remains of the disappeared - the Independent Commission for the Location of Victims Remains (ICLVR) - was established, and has in fact proven to be quite effective. As a result, the reactions of key constituencies to the disappearances can be used as a prism through which to comprehensively explore issues of relevance to transitional justice scholars and practitioners.Pursuing an interdisciplinary approach, and based on extensive empirical research, this book provides a multifaceted exploration of the responses of these constituencies to the practice of disappearing. It engages with transitional justice themes including silence, memory, truth, acknowledgement, and apology. Key issues examined include the mobilisation efforts of families of the disappeared, efforts by a (former) non-state armed group to address its legacy of violence, the utility of a limited immunity mechanism to incentivise information provision, and the interplay between silence and memory in the shaping of a collective, societal understanding of the disappeared.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51819186192672,"sku":"NEW0367727951","price":71.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71Mkr_oHDIL.jpg?v=1781127115","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/transitional-justice-and-the-disappeared-of-northern-ireland-0367727951","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
