Evolución y desarrollo del concepto de justicia restaurativa en Colombia

Abstract

The evolution of the postulates in terms of victim reparation has gone a long way, taking into account the elements of analysis related to the way in which institutions operate in front of their associates, that is, the way in which norms are established taking into account the paradigms of power; we see then in legal systems the passage from a retributive criminal justice to a restorative criminal justice, in the first, the approach is determined by the classic vision of the monopoly of force and the administration of justice by the State, which reduces the redress and the relief of the damage caused, only to the imposition of the sentence, the evolution of the right is marking the demarcation of this position, to a position known as restorative justice that seeks the repair of the damage, not only from punitive nature, or economic compensation, but tends for justice and truth, that is, the clarification of the facts concomitant to crime, seeking in this way, the truth beyond the process.
