While there is a great deal of research on how post-conflict reconciliation efforts affect different groups of people differently, little attention has been paid to how victims’ ethnicity—to wit, whether victims were persecuted for belonging to an ethnic minority or whether they were members of the ethnic majority who were persecuted for non-ethnic reasons—shapes transitional justice experiences. This is particularly true when considering how reparations outcomes vary by ethnic identity. Given that ethnic minorities are often disadvantaged in many respects, groups who were persecuted for being ethnic minorities may well have worse reparations outcomes than groups who were persecuted for non-ethnic reasons. Using original reparations data, this paper shows that ethnicity does affect reparations outcomes, albeit in unexpected ways. Ethnic minority groups are more likely to receive reparations promises than groups persecuted for non-ethnic reasons, and although ethnic minority groups are slightly less likely to receive reparations payments, most do receive the reparations they were promised, and generally they do not have to wait longer for those promises and payments than groups persecuted for non-ethnic reasons.
