Summary
Reconstructs the history of truth commissions as a model and the role of their experts. It shows that, conceived at first as a palliative in the absence of criminal trials after violent political conflicts, they later came to be presented as a form of restorative justice, while other sectors integrate them into international criminal law. It concludes that efforts to include them in “transitional justice” achieved only a partial juridification. Useful for those who study the relationship between truth, restorative justice and transitional justice.
