Summary
It describes how South Africa moved from a segregationist regime to a multiracial democracy through negotiation and without violent rupture, and focuses on the Truth and Reconciliation Commission. It explains that the country set aside the traditional punitive model without giving up holding those responsible to account for their acts or establishing the facts, and argues that the restorative option was one of the main factors in the success of the transition. It is useful for those who study transitional justice and compare experiences of truth and reparation in Latin America.
