Abstract

Drawing on the substantive chapters of this book, this chapter examines the relationship between global transitional justice norms and transitional justice practice in the Solomon Islands. It highlights the points of contact between global norms and local practices, identifies areas of acceptance and rejection, and considers the extent to which the transitional justice processes pursued in the Solomon Islands may be deemed successful. It argues that although substantial efforts have been made to right the wrongs of the past, to uncover the truth about atrocities committed during the conflict, and to facilitate genuine reconciliation, at the individual, communal, and societal levels, the failure of the Solomon Islands Government to table the TRC Report before parliament or to implement its recommendations remains a significant shortcoming that continues to limit the success of the transitional justice process as a whole.
