Description

This talk was given as part of the Oxford Transitional Justice Research (OTJR) Seminar Series. Myanmar's mass-atrocities against the Rohingya minority, qualified by UN sources as a genocide, is one of the most pressing accountability challenges of our time. This has resulted in a mass-exodus of up to 1 million refugees in neighbouring Bangladesh with harrowing stories of violence. Given the failure of the UN Security Council to make a Chapter VII referral to the ICC, what options are available for eradicating impunity?

Oxford Transitional Justice Research (OTJR) is an inter-disciplinary network of more than 100 Oxford staff and students working broadly on issues of transition in societies recovering from mass conflict and/or repressive rule. OTJR is dedicated to producing high-quality scholarship that connects intimately to practical and policy questions in transitional justice, focusing on the following themes: Prosecutions, Truth Commissions, Local and traditional practices, Compensation and reparations, Theoretical and philosophical debates in transitional justice, Institutional reform and Archives of tribunal and other transitional justice materials. The OTJR seminar programme is held weekly and reflects these aims.
