In contrast, this book highlights the significance of structural violence in producing and reproducing rights violations. The book further argues that, in order to remedy structural violations of human rights, there is a need to utilise a different toolkit from that typically employed in transitional justice contexts. The book sets out and applies a definition of transformative justice as expanding upon, and providing an alternative to, transitional justice. Focusing on a comparative study of social movements, nongovernmental organisations and trade unions working on land and housing rights in South Africa, and their network relationships, the book argues that networks of this kind make an important contribution to processes advancing transformative justice.Transitional justice.Transitional justiceSouth AfricaPolitical crimes and offensesSouth AfricaHuman rightsSouth AfricaTransitional justicePolitical crimes and offensesHuman rights323.0968Evans Matthew1470297MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910796738003321Transformative justice3682026UNINA
