| Summary: |
Reaching criminal responsability, justice and reconciliation are the three main
objectives safeguarded for the transition and consolidation of a democratic State
in societies with armed confl ict or post confl ict situations. However, the forms
chosen to gain such objectives places in balance the use of several mechanism
of transitional justice and criminal prosecution, especially in prolonged armed
confl icts like Colombia�s. The purpose of this article is to critically evaluate
transitional justice mechanisms and their dualistic role as part of an integral system
of peace that intends to achive the objectives mentioned; to conclude that their
usage does not imply the renounce of criminal justice, owing to preserve the
international obligation to prosecute abuses against international humanitarian law
and human rights. |
