This research examines how migrant and formerly displaced communities evaluate the effectiveness of transitional justice. Transitional justice programs help communities rebuild, reform, and repair legal and non-legal relationships and systems. This research investigates if and how land attachments and work relations are critical to local community evaluations of transitional justice. This research is important because transitional justice is an integral feature of community development and critical to maintaining effective community relations and local government infrastructures. This project uses the plantation as site of agricultural land and labor production to investigate why land attachment and work relations are critical to community evaluations of transitional justice. In doing so, it complements available data on the effectiveness of transitional justice within the development sector in order to improve the capacities of these programs to provide justice. Research findings will interest development actors, donors, lawmakers, and policymakers who aim to understand transitional justice programming's long-term effects. The project also provides training for graduate and undergraduate students in methods of rigorous, scientific data collection and analysis.The researcher will examine land use, labor practices, and life relations among linguistic and ethnic minorities and will gather data using qualitative research methods, including participant observation, ethnographic interviews, archival research, and community mapping. Interviews will be conducted with local communities to study if and how prior experiences with agricultural labor and residence influence transitional justice programming outcomes. Participant observation will provide data on how local communities use and value land and what kinds of work they perform to feel socially and economically secure after transitional justice programming concludes. Community mapping and archival research will provide material evidence of transitional justice programming's effectiveness and what outcomes, if any, benefitted local communities. The broader research findings will support studies of transitional justice, the agricultural economic sector, land use, and work relations.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

这项研究调查了移民和以前流离失所的社区如何评估过渡时期司法的有效性。过渡司法方案帮助社区重建、改革和修复法律和非法律关系和制度。这项研究调查了土地扣押和工作关系是否以及如何对当地社区对过渡司法的评估至关重要。这项研究之所以重要，是因为过渡司法是社区发展的一个组成部分，对维持有效的社区关系和地方政府基础设施至关重要。该项目使用种植园作为农业用地和劳动力生产的场所，以调查为什么土地依附和劳动关系对社区评估过渡司法至关重要。通过这样做，它补充了关于发展部门内过渡时期司法效力的现有数据，以便提高这些方案伸张正义的能力。研究结果将引起发展参与者、捐助者、立法者和政策制定者的兴趣，他们旨在了解过渡时期司法规划的长期影响。该项目还为研究生和本科生提供了严格、科学的数据收集和分析方法的培训。研究人员将研究语言和少数民族之间的土地使用、劳动实践和生活关系，并将使用定性研究方法收集数据，包括参与者观察、民族志访谈、档案研究和社区绘图。将与当地社区进行访谈，以研究以前在农业劳动力和居住方面的经验是否以及如何影响过渡司法方案的编制结果。参与者观察将提供数据，说明当地社区如何使用和珍视土地，以及在过渡司法方案编制结束后，他们从事何种工作才能感到社会和经济安全。社区测绘和档案研究将为过渡时期司法方案的有效性以及当地社区受益的结果(如果有的话)提供物质证据。更广泛的研究成果将支持过渡司法、农业经济部门、土地使用和工作关系的研究。这一奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
