The experience of writing this report helped reinforce my belief that the theory of transitional justice much emanate from, and constantly be nourished from the experiences of those who engage in its day-to-day work: the survivors, the families of victims, the human rights defenders, lawyers, judicial operators, whose labor creates the things we understand to be transitional justice. My first debt of gratitude is to Katya Salazar, Executive Director of the Due Process of Law Foundation (DPLF), and Leonor Arteaga, Impunity and Grave Human Rights Senior Program Officer at DPLF, for their invitation to collaborate in the preparation of a grant proposal to the Bureau of Democracy, Labor and Human Rights, which led to the two-year funded project on transitional justice in post-conflict Peru, Guatemala and El Salvador that is the basis for this report.

A joint operation between Mexican Marines and the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration in February 2014, however, finally penetrated the myth of invul- nerability for drug trafficking organizations with the arrest of that world’s most powerful leader, Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzmán.

  • World Congress on Communication for Development
    5 Communication Labs his section reviews the workshops from the Communication TLabs strand of the Congress, which addressed the cross-cutting nature of Communication for Development, looking at method- ological issues such as impact evaluation and the adoption of par- ticipatory communication approaches, as well as the use of media (including community media) and ICTs in development initiatives. This section also includes ideas and recommendations from the two special events on communication and disabilities and indigenous peoples, which were also considered important issues in which com- munication plays a major role. The six workshops in this strand were as follows: 1. News Media as a Pro-Development Tool 2. Fighting Poverty—Community Media and Communication for Development in the Digital Age 3. Implementing Communication for Development Thinking in Southern Realities—Negotiating Politics, Profit, and Poverty Toward Social Inclusion 4. Impact and Assessment—Innovative Ways to Determine Communication Effectiveness 5. The Rationale, the Value, and the Challenges for Adopting Participatory Communication in Development Programs 6. Which Kind of Development Communication Does Attract Media? 87 88 WORLD CONGRESS ON COMMUNICATION FOR DEVELOPMENT News Media as a Pro-Development Tool Panelists had no doubts about the value added of the media covering development issues. The discussion revolved instead around (a) why this is so hard to achieve, (b) what civil society needs to understand to get the news media to cover development, and (c) who needs to take what roles in order for journalists to cover development stories effectively. KEY MEDIA TRENDS 1. The concentration of media ownership—In the United States, there has been an acceleration of ownership of all media into fewer private hands.

Introduction Does the end ever justify the means? This question confronts and haunts the student of modem terrorism and revolution. In the first part of this century, Mahatma Gandhi, leading India in a non- violent struggle against British imperial rule, argued eloquently that violent means are never justifiable, no matter how noble the end. He convinced Indians to struggle for independence non-violently on the basis that "[t]ruth never damages a cause that is just."1 Leading this unique revolution, Gandhi provided a moral founda- * The author holds a law degree with Honors from the University of London (England) and teaches History and Human Rights at Memorial University of Newfoundland, Canada.
