Monographs

The Institute for Justice and Reconciliation is committed to the promotion of sustainable reconciliation, transitional justice and democratic nation-building in South Africa, on other African countries, and in transitional societies elsewhere.

Through research, analysis, community intervention, spirited public debate and grassroots encounters, the Institute's work aims to create a climate in which people in divided societies are willing to build a common, integrated nation.

The Monograph Series is a product of the Institute's threefold commitment to research, dialogue and collaborative interventions with local actors in societies in transition.
