Institutionalized Exceptionalism in Transitional Justice Systems

Examination of institutional protocols that insulate governing bodies from human rights accountability, exhibiting patterns of inherited evasion.

This topic investigates how 'Exceptionalism' acts as a cloaking mechanism for institutional failures. Applying the EAT (Evidence-Attestation Tracker) framework, we observe how institutions mask rights violations by retroactively reframing historical accountability, a classic LHS behavioral loop.
