This collection significantly contributes to the critical field of transitional justice, advocating for "transitional justice from below" and highlighting the intricate and often complex relationships between justice initiatives, local contexts, and memory-making processes. Expanding upon this perspective, it delves into informal memory practices across diverse settings, emphasizing their individual and collective dynamics, as well as their intersections, moving beyond a mere conceptualization of memory as symbolic reparation and the politics of memory. By focusing on the memorialization practices of communities, activists, families, and survivors, this book aims to shed light on the hidden, unwritten, and multifaceted aspects of the current memory boom. Organized around the concept of localizing memory, it provides valuable insights into how and under what conditions localized memory practices can contribute to recognition and social transformation, as well as their potential to be inclusive or exclusive of diverse and dynamic memories.

Drawing from inter- and multi-disciplinary approaches, this book offers an in-depth and nuanced understanding of local memory practices in transitional justice contexts. It will be of great interest to students and scholars of memory and genocide studies, peace and conflict studies, transitional justice, sociology, and anthropology.
