= New group blog on Transitional Justice =


 * By Helena Cobban**

Ahem... I have an important announcement to make... Jonathan Edelstein, a South African social psychologist called Brandon Hamber, and I are launching a new group blog called Transitional Justice Forum.

The subhead of the new blog says, "resources and multi-disciplinary discussion on the challenges of justice during transitions to a better world. Join us!" So this is my invitation to JWN's readers to do just that.

As you can see, we have just us three as authors for now, though we are definitely planning to bring more on board. Nominations-- including self-nominations-- are very welcome! (Send me a note with any suggestions.)

I'd also love it if JWN readers could participate in the comments-board discussions over there some-- especially right now, while we're still trying to launch the blog-- and if y'all could also help us to publicize TJF by telling any of your friends or colleagues who work in a relevant field about it.

Rest assured: I intend to continue putting the same amount of energy into JWN as I always have. The idea with the new baby is to make it "a widely networked collaborative project," rather than somethng that only I-- or only Jonathan and I-- do all the work on.

In fact, the readership here at JWN has been rising in a very satisfactory way over the past few weeks. So I'd be foolish to let this well-established old blog wither on the vine right now, wouldn't I?
