Integral Reparation and Social Reintegration in Transition Scenarios

In Colombia, the social reintegration of those responsible for crimes, even in transitional justice processes, has had a strong emphasis on the debate on punishability and criminal sanctions, the latter restricted to custodial sentences in penitentiaries and prisons. This research proposes to offer a different view of social reintegration as a function of punishment in order to extend it to the reparation of the victim's harm, as an essential element in the search for justice, which guarantees non-repetition and generates favourable conditions for the reconstruction of the social fabric and peaceful coexistence from a restorative justice perspective.
