Abstract

This article explores the long-lasting effects of impunity on victims’ everyday lives. Drawing on Rojas Baeza’s medico-psychiatric definition of impunity, the article discusses how impunity creates different traumatic consequences in a victim’s life and prolongs the suffering of victims and their families. The article argues that the absence of justice, the denial of truth, and non-accountability of perpetrators of state crimes, not only constitute significant components of the mechanics of impunity but also create eventual and painful effects in victims’ daily lives. The article uses primary data from my field research conducted in Turkey, and exemplifies some of the traumatic consequences of state crimes committed by the Turkish state against Kurds and their eventual effects on the victims’ lives. The article examines these long-term effects of impunity on victims to develop the concept of victimization in the context of state crimes and impunity.

土耳其国家对库尔德人的犯罪行为和有罪不罚的受害行为
本文探讨有罪不罚对受害者日常生活的长期影响。根据Rojas Baeza的医学-精神病学对有罪不罚的定义,本文讨论有罪不罚如何在受害者的生活中造成不同的创伤后果,并延长受害者及其家人的痛苦。这篇文章认为,司法的缺失、对真相的否认以及对国家罪行肇事者的不负责任,不仅构成了有罪不罚机制的重要组成部分,而且最终也给受害者的日常生活带来了痛苦的影响。这篇文章使用了我在土耳其进行的实地研究的主要数据,并举例说明了土耳其政府对库尔德人犯下的国家罪行的一些创伤性后果,以及它们对受害者生活的最终影响。本文考察了有罪不罚对受害者的这些长期影响,以在国家犯罪和有罪不罚的背景下发展受害的概念。
