Transitional Justice and Memory in UE

This website is aimed at researchers, historians, scholars and the general public interested in learning about the measures adopted by EU member states in order to deal with the crimes committed during the 20th century by repressive regimes in Europe. This area of study, known as transitional justice, refers to how societies address legacies of past human rights abuses, mass atrocity, or other forms of severe social trauma, including genocide or civil war, in order to build a more democratic, just, or peaceful future. The International Center for Transitional Justice has defined it as “the set of judicial and non-judicial measures that have been implemented by different countries in order to redress the legacies of massive human rights abuses”.
