Abstract
This paper examines the transformative potential of community-based reparations within Morocco’s experience of transitional justice, and the extent to which such reparations enable a move beyond individual compensation to address the structural causes of political violence during the ‘years of lead’ (1956–1999). Drawing on the work of the Equity and Reconciliation Commission (IER), it is noted that transformative reparations provide a framework for analysing the structural and intersectional dynamics that enabled the state to institutionalise the dismantling of the opposition and to marginalise certain population groups, including women. This response took the form of avenues for transformation centred on community-based reparations and viewed through the lens of recognition of collective harms, even though the theoretical ambition for transformation was significantly tempered in practice, thereby illustrating both the potential and the challenges of transformative reparations in terms of sustainable reconciliation.
