COLORADO-MARIN, Lina Patricia  y  VILLA-GOMEZ, Juan David. The Role of Truth Commissions in Transition Processes: Approaching a State of the Art. Ágora U.S.B. [online]. 2020, vol.20, n.2, pp.306-331. ISSN 1657-8031.  https://doi.org/10.21500/16578031.5146.

Transitional justice provides mechanisms to ensure truth, justice, reparation, and non-repetition to victims of human rights abuses perpetrated during dictatorial re gimes and armed conflict. It is a legal framework, which has boomed since the last decades of the twentieth century and, particularly, in Colombia, has become a tool to deal with post-negotiation periods with illegal armed groups over the past twenty years. This is borne out, among others, by this review of 129 studies and discussions on the experiences of Truth Commissions between 1997 and 2019.

Palabras clave : Truth Commissions; Right to Truth; Victims, and Transitional Justice.
