Workshop on “The Age of Transitional Justice: Between Global Norms and Local Practices” with Dr Karolina KOZIURA

Every year the European Civilization Chair of the College of Europe at Natolin invites Max Weber Fellows at the European Union Institute (EUI) to devise and lead two workshops on historical topics at Natolin.

This year, Natolin students had the opportunity to attend one of the workshops titled: “The Age of Transitional Justice: Between Global Norms and Local Practices” delivered by Dr Karolina KOZIURA, Max Weber Fellow at the European University Instituted in Florence. 

Dr KOZIURA addressed the issue of transitional justice through an analysis of several international cases. Students had the opportunity to explore different dimensions of the concept. Participants worked in small groups and discussed important documents to have a better understanding of this complex transformative process.
