This paper evaluates the ongoing effort to document human rights violations in Syria from a transitional justice perspective

Abstract

This paper evaluates the ongoing effort to document human rights violations in Syria from a transitional justice perspective. It highlights current gaps in the documentation efforts of international actors and Syrian civil society and suggests how to address them in order to build a solid foundation for future transitional justice processes across the retributive/restorative justice spectrum
