of view, see Naomi Roht-Arriaza, Rosemary Nagy, Lundy and McGovern. According to Lundy and McGovern: "'Transition,' as normally conceived within transitional justice theory, tends to involve a particular and limited conception of democratisation based on liberal and essentially Western formulations of democracy. Moreover, the assumption that 'transition' implies a move away from dictatorship and toward democracy ignores the problem that human rights abuses may continue to take place in circumstances where, in theory at least, the norms of liberal democratic accountability prevail. Challenging this permits a radical critique of implicit liberal versions of transition that may otherwise struggle to deal with the subversion of the rule of law, under the guise of law itself, in ostensibly liberal democratic states." Lundy/McGovern (2008).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
