This paper highlights decisions on “transitional justice”
taken in “founding moments” and how the problems
to be addressed are moral, legal and political. The
latter is characterized by (i) the need to establish a
community based on enduring polical rights, and
(ii) the contextual constraints that limit punishment.
The Inter American Human Rights Court does not
consider this when analyzing transitional justice
measures –ie. Amnesty and the role of criminal law.
It is proposed to justify transitional policies with two
values / reasons. First, the crimes committed in order
to restore dignity to the victims –ie. Retrospective and
intrinsic reasons– muist be reprached. Second, those
facts must be punished because it is the best way
to establish a lasting community –ie. Retrospective
and instrumental reasons. This is to say, not only acts
committed are punished but also a community based
on rights is established. If these are the reasons thay
justify transitional justice measures, there should be
a balance between the two perspectives in those
founding moments. Its result will not always be to
use Criminal Law to reproach these facts. However,
they are justified despite the assertions of the Inter
American Human Rights Court.

Este último se caracteriza por (i) la necesidad de fundar una comunidad política basada en derechos perdurable; y, (ii) los condicionamientos contextuales que limitan el castigo. Ahora, la Corte IDH no considera esto al analizar las medidas de justicia transicional –ie. amnistía y el rol del derecho penal–. Se propone justificar a las políticas transicionales con dos valores/ razones. Primero, debemos reprochar los crímenes cometidos de modo que se devuelva la dignidad a las víctimas –ie. razones retrospectivas e intrínsecas–. Segundo, deben castigarse esos hechos porque es la mejor forma de fundar una comunidad perdurable –ie. razones prospectivas e instrumentales–. Esto es, castigamos no solo por los hechos cometidos sino también, para fundar definitivamente una comunidad basada en derechos. Si son estas las razones que justifican las medidas de justicia transicional, debería hacerse un balance entre ambas perspectivas en esos momentos fundacionales. Su resultado no será siempre recurrir al derecho penal para reprochar estos hechos. Sin embargo, están justificadas, pese a lo que sostiene la Corte IDH.2013text (article)application/pdfhttps://dialnet.unirioja.es/servlet/oaiart?codigo=7517736(Revista) ISSN 1794-2918Jurídicas, ISSN 1794-2918, Vol. 10, Nº. 2, 2013, pags. 24-39spaLICENCIA DE USO: Los documentos a texto completo incluidos en Dialnet son de acceso libre y propiedad de sus autores y/o editores.
