Entre el control de la criminalidad y el debido proceso

  • Categories: Law

Este libro presenta un análisis original y profundo de los códigos de procedimiento penal colombianos expedidos desde 1938. La autora nos invita a estudiar estos códigos a partir de dos modelos opuestos de valores, principios y creencias frente al sistema de justicia penal: el control de la criminalidad y el debido proceso. Usando estos modelos, el libro revela las decisiones políticas y elecciones valorativas en cada código, teniendo en cuenta el contexto de su aprobación y reforma. Entre el control de la criminalidad y el debido proceso, título con el que se celebran diez años de la Colección Fronteras del Derecho, permite entender cómo se ha moldeado la cultura jurídico-procesal penal y cuáles son los procesos histórico- políticos que han dado lugar al diseño contemporáneo del proceso penal colombiano. Su objetivo, más allá de explicar el pasado, es ofrecer elementos para analizar y repensar la justicia penal actual.

  • Publisher: Routledge

This book is the first systematic, interdisciplinary examination of the peace agreement signed between the Colombian Government and the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia to end one of the largest and most violent conflicts in the Western Hemisphere. It discusses the achievements, failures, and challenges of this innovative peace agreement and its implications for Colombia’s future. Contributors include negotiators of the Agreement, judges of the Special Jurisdiction for Peace, representatives of the civil society, and leading academic experts in peace studies, human rights, international law, criminal law, transitional justice, political science, and philosophy. Based on the premise that peace is a form of transferable social knowledge, and therefore necessitates transformative social learning, the volume also discusses what other countries can learn from the Colombian experience. This book will be of much interest to students of peace and conflict studies, transitional justice, Latin American politics, human rights, civil wars and International Relations.

Histories of Transnational Criminal Law

  • Categories: Law

This edited collection provides an in-depth account of the history of key developments in transnational criminal law. While the history of international criminal law is now a much written about topic, the origins of most modern transnational criminal laws are not well understood. Histories of Transnational Criminal Law provides for the first time a set of legal histories of state efforts to combat and cooperate against transnational crime. With contributions from a group of word-leading experts, this edited volume traverses a range of topics, beginning with the normative, intellectual, and institutional histories of transnational criminal law. It then moves to the histories of specific transnational crimes ranging across eras from piracy to cybercrime, and finishes by examining jurisdiction, modes of liability, different forms of procedural cooperation, and the predicament of the individual in transnational criminal law. The book highlights specific issues and how they have been resolved, in the loose assemblage of norms, institutions, and practices that constitutes transnational criminal law.

El nuevo Código General Disciplinario debía comenzara a regir el 1 de enero de 2017. Sin embargo, luego de su aprobación en el Congreso, el Código fue objeto de objeciones gubernamentales y tres sentencias de la Corte Constitucional. Su vigencia fue aplazada por el Plan Nacional de Desarrollo y Colombia fue condenada el 8 de julio de 2020 por la Corte Interamericana de Derechos Humanos. So pretexto de cumplir dicho fallo, se expidió una ley que reformó el Código que aún no empezaba a surtir efectos. En la reforma se dispuso, entre otros asuntos, que las funciones disciplinarias de la Procuraduría General de la Nación ya no son de naturaleza administrativa, sino jurisdiccional. Pero...
