Resumo

In this short essay, I explore the various possible relationships between truth and reconciliation. This discussion is located in the broader context of the various challenges associated with dealing with conflict or significant social trauma in the past, such as war crimes or crimes against humanity. More specifically, I focus on what we mean by truth and what we mean by reconciliation. I believe this provides us with some hints about the possible relationship between these two key ideas.
