abstract="While the dominant human rights discourse on transitional justice constitutes a mix of reinforcing aims that seek to &quot;make peace with&quot; a violent past, this article complicates this notion by exploring how affective memories can prevent individuals from envisioning a future for themselves in which their individual and their nation's past is safely left behind. In the context of ongoing debates over whether to remember or forget a country's traumatic past, the article will show how affective memories of violence and disappearance prevail and disrupt the reconciliation paradigm, and need to be taken into account in transitional justice processes.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
