2012 The Hague Symposium on Post-Conflict Transitions & International Justice

2012 The Hague Symposium on Post-Conflict Transitions & International Justice

The inaugural 2012 The Hague Symposium on Post-Conflict Transitions & International Justice will be held from July 21 - August 18 at the Clingendael Institute of International Relations and in cooperation with Leiden University's Grotius Centre for International Legal Studies, offering optional LLM credit.  The course work includes modules on restorative and retributive justice, security and development as they relate to rule of law, as well as intensive case studies on the serious practical and moral dilemmas facing the field of transitional justice.  Through formal lectures, site visits to International Tribunals and Courts, and interactive simulations and workshops, participants will gain a broad understanding of this emerging field, including concepts, controversies, and institutions, as well as critically examine the historical and contemporary uses of different justice interventions through direct interactions with the actual decision makers.  Learn more by visiting http://ipsinstitute.org/the-hague-2012/.
