In this chapter, the findings in the case studies of Uganda and Myanmar are collated systematically in two ways. Firstly, a comparative analysis is made regarding the nature of transitions in both countries, the legitimacy of the institutions and how they impact on transitional justice in general. Important distinctions between the two cases are also made regarding the ICC intervention. The chapter also connects the work of NGOs to the localisation of transitional justice norms in two ways: firstly, by showing how transnational networks localise the work of global justice mechanisms through adapting their practices and statements for the conflict-affected communities; and secondly, by showing the victim-oriented work of NGOs, which is a central tenet of institutions like the ICC. Together, these two case studies present a nuanced picture of dynamic and fragmented approaches by transnational networks and NGOs within the ambit of transitional justice in the Global South.

Comparing Uganda and Myanmar Contexts: Challenges in Localising Transitional Justice

  • Tonny Raymond Kirabira

摘要

In this chapter, the findings in the case studies of Uganda and Myanmar are collated systematically in two ways. Firstly, a comparative analysis is made regarding the nature of transitions in both countries, the legitimacy of the institutions and how they impact on transitional justice in general. Important distinctions between the two cases are also made regarding the ICC intervention. The chapter also connects the work of NGOs to the localisation of transitional justice norms in two ways: firstly, by showing how transnational networks localise the work of global justice mechanisms through adapting their practices and statements for the conflict-affected communities; and secondly, by showing the victim-oriented work of NGOs, which is a central tenet of institutions like the ICC. Together, these two case studies present a nuanced picture of dynamic and fragmented approaches by transnational networks and NGOs within the ambit of transitional justice in the Global South.
