More about the book

Focusing on Colombia's Justice and Peace Law, the book critically examines its implementation and the transitional landscape from 2005 onwards. It delves into the negotiation processes with paramilitary groups, the establishment of the Historic Memory Group, and a failed 2007 law. Through interviews with pivotal figures in the justice and peace process, the author uncovers the contradictions and complexities inherent in these practices. The analysis emphasizes the necessity of a critical perspective to pave the way for a just and peaceful society.
