Includes bibliographical references. Using material such as organisational reports and newspaper clippings, along with a survey of relevant literature on the South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission, this thesis fills an important gap in the literature on the TRC's amnesty process by investigating the perspective and contribution of the South African human rights community on the novel form of amnesty involved in the TRC process. In so doing, the study draws on relevant comparisons with the role of the Argentine human rights movement in advocating for truth and justice for human rights atrocities following the restoration of civilian rule in Argentine 1983. 2015-01-08T19:54:36Z 2015-01-08T19:54:36Z 2011 Master Thesis Masters MPhil http://hdl.handle.net/11427/11768 eng application/pdf Department of Political Studies Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town |
