The Tuol Sleng Archives and the Cambodian Genocide - Adam, Dawne (Archivaria, 1998)
The purposes of this paper are, first of all, to describe how the Khmer Rouge documented the genocide they committed against their fellow Cambodians, with particular emphasis on the records created, used, and stored at the Tuol Sleng Incarceration Centre; secondly, to describe the bureaucracy the Khmer Rouge created that supported their documentation activities; thirdly, to suggest some reasons why they documented their activities so extensively; and finally, to describe the disposition of their records and the uses to which they are now being put. The paper concludes with a discussion of the importance of the Tuol Sleng archives to the Cambodian people’s and international community’s pursuit of justice.

Genocidal Archives: The African Context—Genocide in Rwanda - Adami, Tom A.; Hunt, Martha (Journal of the Society of Archivists, 2005)
When looking at international criminal justice archival theory and practice, it is difficult to find many examples. There are the two current ad-hoc international criminal tribunals dealing with the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) and Rwanda (ICTR) in The Hague, Netherlands and Arusha, Tanzania, respectively. Prior to 1993 one has to go back to the late 1940's and the Nuremberg and Tokyo War Crimes Trials. This article asks whether there is such a thing as international criminal justice archival theory and details several of the unique aspects of record-keeping practice in an international organisation that deals with genocide and other crimes against humanity. Much valuable and innovative work has been carried out by the staff of the records and archives unit of ICTR since 1998 and the continuation of these approaches will be vital to future similar organisations. In light of current developments to deal with the former Iraqi regime in a hybrid internatioinal and/or domestic Iraqi court, valuable lessons can be learnt from the experience of the ICTY and the ICTR.

O que resta de Auschwitz: o arquivo e a testemunha - Agamben, Giorgio; Assmann, Selvino J. (Boitempo, 2008)
Como narrar o inenarrável ou testemunhar sobre algo que está além da compreensão humana? O que resta de Auschwitz, de Giorgio Agamben, procura, a partir de uma análise profunda do papel do testemunho como documento histórico e de seus limites enquanto relato pessoal, entender as dimensões da produção escrita dos sobreviventes do Holocausto nazista. Não se trata, portanto, de um livro sobre as circunstâncias materiais relacionadas ao maior campo de concentração de Hitler. O que resta de Auschwitz investiga as dificuldades do testemunho quando este envolve a perda de referenciais básicos num espaço marcado pela total ausência de normas, onde o esforço pela identificação de algo parecido com uma lógica de funcionamento não só se mostrava vão, como também poderia significar a não sobrevivência.O relato do escritor Primo Levi, sobrevivente de Auschwitz, é matéria-prima para a análise de Agamben. Levi se coloca como testemunha e condiciona sua sobrevivência à necessidade de contar essa história. Já os chamados 'muçulmanos' - prisioneiros que perderam sua condição de homens e foram reduzidos a cadáveres ambulantes - são os únicos que poderiam dar testemunho verdadeiro do terror, se já não estivessem privados da linguagem.Agamben coloca que o valor do testemunho está essencialmente no que lhe falta, no que não pode ser dito por homens que já não o são. Em suas palavras, 'Auschwitz marca o fim e a ruína de qualquer ética da dignidade e da adequação a uma norma. A vida nua, a que o homem foi reduzido'.A obra, que faz parte da coleção Estado de Sítio e traz apresentação de Jeanne Marie Gagnebin, recupera conceitos presentes nos anteriores Estado de Exceção e Homo Sacer. Trata-se de leitura fundamental, onde Auschwitz é apresentado como o espaço de uma experiência em que se fundem as fronteiras entre o humano e o inumano, a vida e a morte, colocando à prova a reflexão de nosso tempo, que mostra sua insuficiência por deixar aparecer, entre suas ruínas, o perfil incerto de uma nova ética.

Se lo deben a las mujeres, hombres, niñas y niños que perdieron la vida aquel día, y a sus seres queridos.

JUSTICE TRANSITIONNELLE DE L'AFRIQUE DU SUD AU RWANDA - Andrieu, Kora (Gallimard, 2012)
Justice transitionnelle ? Connais pas. Pourtant c'est désormais, dans les relations internationales, une "recette" devenue comme une norme qui s'appliquerait à tout pays sortant d'une dictature ou d'une guerre et aspirant à une vie politique et civique pacifiée. Les pays concernés sont aujourd'hui légion : Afrique du Sud, Rwanda, Sri Lanka, Ouganda, Libye, Côte d'Ivoire, Égypte, Tunisie, Guinée, Maroc, sans oublier nombre de pays latino-américains et européens - ceux autrefois dominés à l'Est par les régimes communistes, ou l'Espagne hantée par les fosses communes du régime franquiste. Dans tous les cas, il a été question de "commissions Vérité et Réconciliation", de guérison des atrocités du passé par l'expression publique des victimes et d'éventuelles réparations financières ou symboliques, voire de la "fonction sociale" des procès de dictateurs et de tortionnaires. Or la culture démocratique ne se forge pas d'emblée dans ces normes cathartiques et la démocratie politique ne peut surgir de situations d'inégalités sociales et économiques iniques (l'Afrique du Sud et le Maroc le prouvent à l'envi). La justice transitionnelle n'a de chance de devenir réalité que si, au-delà de l'expression publique, trop souvent contrôlée, des victimes, celles-ci se transforment en authentiques acteurs de la démocratie grâce à la satisfaction de normes et d'attentes que sont la reconnaissance, la dignité, la tolérance, la confiance et l'autonomie. Voici la philosophie politique mise au défi de la réalité la plus crue, partout, maintenant.

National Book Award Finalist TIME Magazine's #1 Nonfiction Book of 2012A New York Times Notable BookA Washington Post Top Ten Book of 2012Best Nonfiction of 2012: The Wall Street Journal, The Plain Dealer In the much-anticipated follow-up to her Pulitzer Prize-winning Gulag, acclaimed journalist Anne Applebaum delivers a groundbreaking history of how Communism took over Eastern Europe after World War II and transformed in frightening fashion the individuals who came under its sway. Iron Curtain describes how, spurred by Stalin and his secret police, the Communist regimes of Eastern Europe were created and what daily life was like once they were complete. Drawing on newly opened East European archives, interviews, and personal accounts translated for the first time, Applebaum portrays in chilling detail the dilemmas faced by millions of individuals trying to adjust to a way of life that challenged their every belief and took away everything they had accumulated. As a result the Soviet Bloc became a lost civilization, one whose cruelty, paranoia, bizarre morality, and strange aesthetics Applebaum captures in these electrifying pages.

Eichmann in Jerusalem: A Report on the Banality of Evil - Arendt, Hannah (Viking Press, 1963)
"While living in Argentina in 1960, Nazi leader Adolf Eichmann was kidnapped and smuggled to Israel where he was put on trial for crimes against humanity. The New Yorker magazine sent Hannah Arendt to cover the trial. While covering the technical aspects of the trial, Arendt also explored the wider themes inherent in the trial, such as the nature of justice, the behavior of the Jewish leadership during the Nazi Régime, and, most controversially, the nature of Evil itself. Far from being evil incarnate, as the prosecution painted Eichmann, Arendt maintains that he was an average man, a petty bureaucrat interested only in furthering his career, and the evil he did came from the seductive power of the totalitarian state and an unthinking adherence to the Nazi cause. Indeed, Eichmann's only defense during the trial was "I was just following orders."

Essays in Understanding, 1930-1954: Formation, Exile, and Totalitarianism - Arendt, Hannah (Schocken, 2005)
Few thinkers have addressed the political horrors and ethical complexities of the twentieth century with the insight and passionate intellectual integrity of Hannah Arendt. She was irresistible drawn to the activity of understanding, in an effort to endow historic, political, and cultural events with meaning. Essays in Understanding assembles many of Arendt’s writings from the 1930s, 1940s, and into the 1950s. Included here are illuminating discussions of St. Augustine, existentialism, Kafka, and Kierkegaard: relatively early examinations of Nazism, responsibility and guilt, and the place of religion in the modern world: and her later investigations into the nature of totalitarianism that Arendt set down after The Origins of Totalitarianism was published in 1951. The body of work gathered in this volume gives us a remarkable portrait of Arendt’s developments as a thinker—and confirms why her ideas and judgments remain as provocative and seminal today as they were when she first set them down.
