A major international conference on Transitional Justice in Mexico City in spring 2016 will bring together transitional justice scholars, practitioners who played a leading role in transitional justice processes in different Latin American countries, and victims of state repression and of the “war on drugs” in Mexico. The aim of the conference is to introduce the language, concepts, and international experiences of transitional justice and the scholarly findings that show how transitional justice mechanisms can have a critical impact in developing a democratic rule of law in post-authoritarian societies.
