Although there have
been many cases of human rights violations in Asia, once democratized,
countries have made efforts to bring justice to the victims and their families.
Transitional justice measures include official apologies, amendment of history
textbooks and government documents, fact investigation and prosecution of
perpetrators, and establishing truth commissions to restore the honor of the
victims. To suggest policy recommendations for those countries in similar
circumstances, the Asia Democracy Research Network (ADRN) has been conducting case
studies on Transitional Justice and Reconciliation since 2021. As a part of
this project, EAI has published a series composed of three working papers
covering the cases of South Korea, Sri Lanka, and Taiwan.
