Sinopse

In this episode, Dr Lauren Dempster interviews Dr Claire Wright (QUB School of Law). The episode explores the relationship between indigenous peoples and transitional justice, with reference to the case of Colombia. We analyse the capacity of contemporary peacebuilding processes to deal with structural injustices rooted in colonial legacies, in this case racial hierarchies. We also explore other ways in which the post-colonial State can transform its relationships with Indigenous Peoples, namely via intercultural education, recognition of autonomy, and prior consultation. The discussion is based on research carried out within the project "Addressing post-colonial legacies in Transitional Justice", of which Fionnuala Ni Aolain (QUB ) and Bill Rolston (Ulster) are co-PIs, under the auspices of the GCRF Gender, Justice and Security Hub.
