E-grāmata: Reconciliation Operationalized in Mozambique: Charting Inclusion, Truth, and Justice, 1992-2022

In Reconciliation Operationalized in Mozambique: Charting Inclusion, Truth, and Justice, 19922022, Natįlia Bueno traces the development of reconciliation in Mozambique from the signing of the General Peace Agreement (GPA) in 1992 to the present day, bringing to light its advances and setbacks throughout the years. Bueno discusses the role played by the leaders of Frelimo and Renamo during the aftermath of violent conflicts to determine how their actions affected their followers. This book advances the debate on Mozambique, deepening the scholarship on reconciliation in societies with violent pasts, and most importantly, on human rights, transitional justice, and conflict and peace studies. Bueno addresses what reconciliation means, how reconciliation has developed in Mozambique over the years, and how transitional justice mechanisms relate to reconciliation. She provides helpful tools to practitioners and argues for an original operationalized conceptualization of reconciliation that is defined by inclusion, truth, and justice. This innovative conceptualization can add precision both to and within case analysis and cross-case comparisons. Using this framework, Bueno challenges the understanding that the country was once reconciled and argues in favor of a new Mozambican solution.
