- W78493942 abstract "The Constitutional Court's response to the problem of transitional justice, Azanian People's Organisation (AZAPO) v President of the Republic of South Africa, is one of its most important decisions to date, exceeding in political significance, one commentator has suggested, even its decision on the death penalty. The jurisprudential complexity not only of the decision itself, but also of the controversies to which it has given rise, makes AZAPO a landmark decision. The growing number of studies on the subject of transitional justice published since the decision and subsequent to the cessation of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission ('TRC') - the most recent of which is Jon Elster's superb historical and comparative account, Closing the Books - suggests the need for a re-evaluation of the Court's jurisprudence in this decision. Although AZAPO was decided almost a decade ago and the TRC suspended its operations in 2001, new studies on transitional justice suggest that we should read AZAPO, and South Africa's response to the dilemmas of transitional justice generally, in new ways that complicate previous critiques of the decision. In particular, many of these studies suggest that commentators who upbraided the Court in the wake of the AZAPO decision advanced theoretical arguments that are either insufficiently thought through or themselves vulnerable to overwhelming objections. The aim of this essay is to re-examine the AZAPO decision and the most telling objections to it to determine whether the Court's response to the dilemmas of transitional justice is coherent and justified in the light of recent work on this subject." @default.
