Title: Transitional Justice in Unified Korea
Description: "No one knows when Korean unification will take place. Experts predict that it will take decades, if not more, to overcome the huge economic, social, and political divide between the two Koreans. However, if and when unification occurs, transitional justice will be a crucial part of maintaining peace and stability in the Korean Peninsula. The authors of this book draw on real-world experience, comparative case studies, and theoretical knowledge to examine potential ways transitional justice might unfold. Although there are an overwhelming number of uncertainties, this book presents many of the factors that will be at play during the transition period. The authors find that, among other factors, social reconciliation, education, memorialization, and establishment of the rule of law will be fundamental parts of rebuilding society in a unified Korea"--Unedited summary from book cover.
