Publicación Pacigerancia: el valor jurídico de los acuerdos de paz en el derecho internacionalRodrigo Uprimny Yepes; Diana Isabel Güiza GómezEn el pasado, los procesos de paz entre un estado y un grupo armado irregular eran considerados un asunto interno, por lo cual el derecho internacional no los regulaba. En las últimas décadas dichos procesos han tenido una creciente dimensión internacional, debido, entre otras razones, al posible valor jurídico de los acuerdos de paz en el derecho internacional. Este artículo explora las categorías jurídicas existentes que pueden otorgarles fuerza vinculante a esos acuerdos en el ámbito internacional –un tratado internacional entre el Estado y el grupo insurgente, un tratado firmado por el Estado y terceros estados, un acuerdo especial humanitario, una resolución del Consejo de Seguridad de la ONU y una declaración unilateral del Estado–. Ante la incertidumbre acerca de los efectos de los instrumentos jurídicos actuales, el artículo plantea la noción de pacigerancia, que se basa en la lex pacificatoria y el ius post bellum, así como en la experiencia colombiana. La pacigerancia le concede al grupo insurgente la personalidad jurídica para negociar y firmar la paz con los mismos derechos y deberes que tiene el Estado, con el fin de que esos acuerdos de paz puedan ser entendidos como verdaderos tratados vinculantes.Publicación Beyond the Binary: Securing Peace and Promoting Justice after ConflictNelson Camilo Sánchez León; Rodrigo Uprimny Yepes; Howard Varney; Michael Schwarz; Tatiana Rincón-Covelli; Claudio Nash Rojas; Tara Van Ho; Oscar Parra VeraThe main objective of Beyond the Binary is to place on record the need to formulate answers to the question of the role that criminal action and punishment should play in negotiated political transitions from war to peace. Discussions on the meaning and scope of concepts such as justice, accountability, and victim satisfaction continue to be fervent topics in specialized circles of what is now known as “the transitional justice field,” and in societies suffering from mass violence. Instead of solving the practical and theoretical dilemmas of these interpretative disputes, the experience and knowledge accumulated over the more than three decades that this field has been in existence have served only to deepen the debates and to adapt more of these discussions to new and constantly-changing scenarios and contexts. The main objective of Beyond the Binary is to place on record the need to formulate answers to the question of the role that criminal action and punishment should play in negotiated political transitions from war to peace. There are two reasons for our making this observation. On one hand, given the institutional, legal, and political challenges facing societies that nowadays attempt to take this step, there is a need for the issue to be analyzed. On the other hand, the conclusion reached from an initial analysis is that the academic and practical discussion seems to be trapped into a polarizing discussion between those who defend a legal interpretation of the duty to investigate, prosecute, and punish, which appears to threaten the possibility of achieving negotiated transitions, and those who, in order to prevent that risk, deny or resent the existence or consolidation of such a principle. The central purpose of this book is to initiate a conversation on how to resolve difficult dilemmas. We appreciate that some of the proposals may come across as controversial, but what we are looking for is, precisely, to open up the possibility of thinking in innovative ways about how to confront these challenges. Una discusión similar se da en el libro Justicia para la paz: Crímenes atroces, derecho a la justicia y paz negociada, en español.
