Summary

Chapter 6 addresses the question of how conceptions of justice emerge among conflict-affected communities in the aftermath of socieoconomic violence. It focuses particularly on two aspects of this question, underlying conceptions of justice (the content or meaning of justice itself) and the strategies or measures proposed to redress injustice (the type of claims put forwards by communities). The chapter builds on the idea, presented earlier in the book, that there is an element of political contestation inherent in the practice of post-war justice processes. The cases of Prijedor and Zenica are once again compared to illustrate how experiences of injustice are translated into different types of justice claims, depending on memories of the past as well on the role of the international intervention in their specific context.
