Online resources: Summary: This book explores the practical and theoretical opportunities as well as the challenges raised by the expansion of transitional justice into new and aparadigmatic' cases. The book defines transitional justice as the pursuit of accountability, recognition and/or disruption and applies an actor-centric analysis focusing on justice actors' intentions of and responses to transitional justice. It offers a typology of different transitional justice contexts ranging from societies experiencing ongoing conflict to consolidated democracies, and includes chapters from all types of aparadigmatic contexts. This covers transitional justice in states with contested political authority, shared political authority, and consolidated political authority. The transitional justice initiatives explored by the wide range of contributors are those of Afghanistan, Belgium, France, Greenland/Denmark, Libya, Syria, Turkey/Kurdistan, UK/Iraq, US, and Yemen. Through these aparadigmatic case studies, the book develops a new framework that, appropriate to its expanding reach, allows us to understand the practice of transitional justice in a more context-sensitive, bottom-up, and actor-oriented way, which leaves room for the complexity and messiness of interventions on the ground. The book will appeal to scholars and practitioners in the broad field of transitional justice, as represented in law, criminology, politics, conflict studies and human rights. The Introduction, Chapter8 and the Concluding Remarksof this bookare freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF at http://www.taylorfrancis.com under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC-BY-NC-ND) 4.0 license.

"This book began as a panel for the International Political Science Association conference, which should have taken place in Lisbon in July 2020. After the conference was cancelled and travel rendered impossible by the Covid-19 pandemic, the panel was transformed into an on-line workshop, growing in numbers and ambition. Ultimately, the workshop included approximately a dozen participants and took place over three days in July and September 2020 ... This book is the fruit of these discussions" --ECIP Acknowledgements.
