Dr Cheryl Lawther
My work focuses on the field of transitional justice. I am particularly interested in the areas of truth recovery, dealing with the past, victims, ex-combatants, reparations, emotions and dark tourism. I have conducted comparative research on these themes in a range of international sites. I am also interested in a wide range of topics relating to the Northern Ireland conflict and peace process.
