Oxford Transitional Justice Research

Oxford Transitional Justice Research (OTJR) is an inter-disciplinary network of more than 150 Oxford staff and students working broadly on issues of transition in societies recovering from mass conflict and/or repressive rule. Founded in 2007, it is now one of the largest and most diverse academic communities conducting research in this field. OTJR is dedicated to producing high-quality scholarship that connects intimately to practical and policy questions in transitional justice, including the following themes:

• Theoretical and philosophical debates in transitional justice

• Domestic and international prosecutions

• Truth commissions and other truth-recovery processes

• Commemoration and memorialisation

• Local and traditional practices

• Compensation and reparations

• Institutional reform
