Animal images, gender, and colonial violence in Colleen Murphy's Pig Girl
No full textBased on the real story of pig farmer Robert Pickton, a serial killer charged with the murders of twenty-six women in his farm in Canada, Pig Girl (2015) exploits animal images to convey the terror and torture of one of his victims, tellingly named Dying Woman. Adopting a postcolonial and gender approach, this article studies how Colleen Murphy uses the bestial iconography in Pig Girl to tackle gender-based violence, particularly towards marginalized and Indigenous women in Canada.Basada en la historia real del granjero de cerdos Robert Pickton, el asesino en serie condenado por los asesinatos de veintiséis mujeres en su granja en Canadá, Pig Girl(2015) explota imágenes animales para transmitir el terror y la tortura de una de sus víctimas, significativamente llamada Dying Woman.

'A daughter come home?': the travel writings of Colleen J. McElroy
No full textThe Conceptual Foundations of Transitional Justice
No full textMany countries have attempted to transition to democracy following conflict or repression, but the basic meaning of transitional justice remains hotly contested. In this book, Colleen Murphy analyses transitional justice - showing how it is distinguished from retributive, corrective, and distributive justice - and outlines the ethical standards which societies attempting to democratize should follow. She argues that transitional justice involves the just pursuit of societal transformation. Such transformation requires political reconciliation, which in turn has a complex set of institutional and interpersonal requirements including the rule of law. She shows how societal transformation is also influenced by the moral claims of victims and the demands of perpetrators, and how justice processes can fail to be just by failing to foster this transformation or by not treating victims and perpetrators fairly. Her book will be accessible and enlightening for philosophers, political and social scientists, policy analysts, and legal and human rights scholars and activists.</jats:p

A Moral Theory of Political Reconciliation
No full textFollowing extended periods of conflict or repression, political reconciliation is indispensable to the establishment or restoration of democratic relationships and critical to the pursuit of peacemaking globally. In this book, Colleen Murphy offers an innovative analysis of the moral problems plaguing political relationships under the strain of civil conflict and repression. Focusing on the unique moral damage that attends the deterioration of political relationships, Murphy identifies the precise kinds of repair and transformation that processes of political reconciliation ought to promote. Building on this analysis, she proposes a normative model of political relationships. A Moral Theory of Political Reconciliation delivers an original account of the failure and restoration of political relationships, which will be of interest to philosophers, social scientists, legal scholars, policy analysts, and all those who are interested in transitional justice, global politics, and democracy.</jats:p
Justice in Transitional Contexts
No full textColleen Murphy, Associate Professor, Texas A & M University, speaks about “transitional justice” referring to the justice involved in transitioning from conflict or authoritarianism to democracy and, in particular, responding to past wrongdoing in this context.
