Interdependence versus Truth and Justice: Lessons from Reconciliation Processes in Maluku
Abstract: Truth commissions
and trials have been applauded as the way to move on from a violent past. Yet,
some post-conflict societies managed to move toward reconciliation without the
presence, or the effective presence of such formal institutions. This article
discusses a number of lessons learned from Maluku, where reconciliation took
the interdependence path. Taking on an interpretive, emic approach, it
elaborates on the sites and mechanisms of interpendence. It argues that
interdependence can be as viable as truth and justice procedures in bringing
about reconciliation.
