JUSTICE AND RECONCILIATION: A STUDY OF TRUTH COMMISSIONS AND THEIR ROLE IN POST-CONFLICT SOCIETIES Darshini.A, Student at TAMIL NADU Dr.AMBEDKAR LAW UNIVERSITY, SCHOOL OF EXCELLENCE IN LAW. Download Manuscript doi.org/10.70183/lijdlr.2024.v02.8 This study looks at how truth commissions can help post-conflict communities move toward justice and reconciliation. This study examines the legal frameworks, guiding principles, and procedures about truth commissions through an extensive analysis of international and national legislation, cases, and scholarly works. The experiences of several truth commissions are compared using a comparative method, emphasizing the effects they had on communities, offenders, and victims. According to the report, truth commissions have been helpful in advancing institutional reforms, accountability, and restitution, but they have difficulty bringing about peace and attending to the concerns of marginalized communities. The study ends by outlining topics for more research and offering best practices for truth commissions. This research advances knowledge of transitional justice procedures and their function in fostering long-term peace.
