Co-Investigator, Law and Policy Frameworks
University of Arkansas at Little Rock
Eric Wiebelhaus-Brahm is Associate Professor in the School of Public Affairs at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock. He critically examines the empirical and normative arguments used to justify the introduction of a range of social and economic policies in societies emerging from periods of conflict and repression. Eric has published three books and over two dozen articles and book chapters. He uses a range of social science research methods to evaluate transitional justice mechanisms to ultimately set more realistic policy expectations, particularly among victims and marginalized groups.
