Political theory and transitional justice.
Stacey, Simon.

Political theory and transitional justice. - 213 p.

Adviser: George Kateb.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--Princeton University, 2005.

The dissertation applies insights derived from several canonical political theorists to the problem of transitional justice: how to deal with those who committed human rights abuses under authoritarian regimes once those regimes democratize. The dissertation begins with Machiavelli and Kant, roughly standing in for radically pragmatic and radically deontological perspectives respectively, and shows both to be instructive but wanting. Locke, I argue, can be regarded as splitting the difference between the two, integrating a defense of rights with a sensitivity to the compromises that politics requires, but the balance he suggests between the two is ultimately inadequate: he proves to be overly concerned with the security interests of the state. The dissertation defends a modification of the Rawlsian original position, called the interval position because it involves a theoretical "time-out" between an authoritarian past and a democratic future. The inhabitants of a recently democratized polity deliberate from behind a veil of ignorance about transitional justice policy. The deliberators know the history of their polity, but not what role they played in it: that is, whether they were ordinary citizens or victims or perpetrators of human rights abuses. I argue that the conclusion reached at in the interval position, informed by the insights of Machiavelli, Kant and Locke, represents both a morally and practically satisfactory approach to the problem of transitional justice.
