Análisis de la justicia transicional en colombia. Retos de la jurisdicción especial para la paz y avances en su implementación

Abstract

This study analyzes transitional justice in Colombia, focusing on the implementation of the Special Jurisdiction for Peace (SJP) as a mechanism to address human rights violations committed during the armed conflict. The objective of the paper is to describe and evaluate the experience of transitional justice in the Colombian context, based on a review of formal and auxiliary sources, with both a qualitative and quantitative approach. The paper is divided into three chapters: the first describes the historical and legal background of transitional justice; the second addresses the genealogy of the armed conflict in Colombia, analyzing the transitional justice norms implemented; and the third examines the implementation of the SJP in Colombia, studying the macro research cases selected by the SJP, and analyzing the challenges of transition to sustainable peace. The paper concludes that transitional justice in Colombia has had advances and setbacks, and that it faces challenges and obstacles to guarantee truth, justice, reparation and non-repetition for the victims of the conflict. The paper also makes some recommendations to improve the functioning of the SJP and contribute to the construction of a historical, political and legal identity in Colombia.
