I believe that the most important components of transitional justice must be the rights of victims, which include the right to the truth, the right to acknowledgment, the right to reparations and the obligation to take steps to ensure that violation will not occur again. In many societies, transition from war to peace or from dictatorship to democracy has been dominated by a debate on how best past massive human rights violations can be addressed without undermining a fragile and transitional peace. Therefore, political considerations have entirely shaped legal solutions adopted to bring about transitions with less regard to accountability and appropriate remedy for victims of human rights abuses and violations. http://www.chr.up.ac.za/ nf2012 Centre for Human Rights LLM 2012-04-25T07:50:32Z 2012-04-25T07:50:32Z 2011/10/28 Mini Dissertation Nibogora, BD 2011/10/28, The right to reparations in the context of transitional justice : lessons for Burundi from South Africa, Chile, Peru and Colombia, LLM Mini Dissertation, University of Pretoria, Pretoria, viewed yymmdd <http://hdl.handle.net/2263/18620> http://hdl.handle.net/2263/18620 en University of Pretoria application/pdf University of Pretoria
