Summary: The Peace Agreements signed in 2016 between the State and the FARC have opened a historic period in Colombia. Transitional Justice has become a fundamental instrument for the consolidation of peace and conciliation within Colombian society. Unlike ordinary or institutional criminal justice, the procedural and sanctioning of Transitional Justice have an essentially restorative purpose; they do not pursue punishment but the reparation of the rights of the victims. The Legislative Act approved in 2017 in Colombia has implemented an Integral System of Transitional Justice, composed of a Truth Commission, a Disappeared Unit and a Special Justice for Peace. The Colombian Constitutional Court is setting the conditions and limits for the implementation of transitional justice.
