Nations emerging from mass conflict face multiple challenges which include rebuilding the social and political infrastructure destroyed during the conflict as well as healing from the events that occurred. Scholarship addressing international and local responses to mass atrocity and nation-building typically cite two competing models. Retributive models attempt to satisfy the call for justice and accountability through adversarial trials against individuals culminating in long prison sentences, while restorative models seek to bring the formerly conflicting parties together to engage in communication and dialogue in order to achieve a shared or collective "truth" that will, theoretically, heal the nation and the individual simultaneously. By analyzing twenty interviews of Rwandan Genocide survivors, specifically discussing issues of justice, truth and reconciliation, I find that the notions of "justice" and "truth" may be too personal to be properly addressed in communal fora. While the formalized process of testifying in the Gacaca did not, as some work has suggested, appear to be detrimental to the individual, it also did not provide the person with the justice they expected to achieve. I also find that where dialogue, forgiveness, and honest recitations of the harmful events occur on the survivor's own term--- rather than emanating from a formal national process where a third party is granted the authority to be the final arbiter of another person's truth---justice is more readily experienced.
