Abstract

Transitional justice is not a special form of justice. Its particularity lies in being a justice adopted to processes of radical transformation of the social and political order, such as, inter alia, the end of an armed conflfl ict for the subsequent achievement of peace. In this sense, judicial bodies that are created in the context of a transitional justice process are governed by the basic principles of any judicial process. Thus, the Special Justice for Peace and the procedural actions that are carried out there must be governed by the procedural principles of any judicial process. However, it should not be forgotten that in transitional justice some obligations and rights are reinterpreted or limited, in order to achieve a true transition. Taking this into account, this article aims to address some of the procedural principles of any judicial process and analyze how they should be applied in the context of the Special Justice for Peace.
