本文审查了南非家庭成员、民间社会组织和现任政府失踪人员工作队在真相与和解委员会进程中产生的寻找南非种族隔离时代失踪人员的努力。它侧重于如何在南非范围内正式界定失踪人员，以及南非政府在多大程度上能够满足失踪人员亲属目前的需要和愿望。我的观点主要有两点：一是家庭成员应该在制定旨在解决失踪人员命运的倡议和机构方面发挥积极作用；二是南非政府应该对确认、归还和重新埋葬失踪人员遗骸的过程采取更全面的“从坟墓到坟墓”的方法。
This article examines efforts to account for missing persons from the apartheid era in South Africa by family members, civil society organizations and the current government's Missing Persons Task Team, which emerged out of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission process. It focuses on how missing persons have been officially defined in the South African context and the extent to which the South African government is able to address the current needs and desires of relatives of the missing. I make two main arguments: that family members ought to have an active role in shaping the initiatives and institutions that seek to resolve the fate of missing people, and that the South African government ought to take a more holistic ‘grave-to-grave’ approach to the process of identifying, returning and reburying the remains of the missing.
