  • Summary

    Redress programmes exist because courts are inhospitable to survivors’ non-recent claims. But if redress is to be better than litigation, it must be made so. Judging what makes better redress programmes requires evaluative criteria. This chapter sets out criteria for evaluating monetary redress programmes. Acceptable criteria need to reflect participants’ interests and values, be realistic about their capabilities, and sensitive to the constraints they face. Those criteria must be acceptable to both survivors and states.
