MARIN GONZALEZ, Keren. BETWEEN NEIGHBORS: CHALLENGES IN THE LOCAL TRANSITIONAL JUSTICE. THE CASE OF THE "LA SIERRA DE LA MACARENA," COLOMBIA. Ágora U.S.B. [online]. 2015, vol.15, n.2, pp.479-494. ISSN 1657-8031.

The current peace process between the Colombian Government and FARC - EP in Havana has rekindled the debate over the limits and scope of transitional justice. Phenomena such as horizontal victimization, result of the indirect participation of civilians in the conflict, poses a number of challenges for the transitional justice model, which is defined at the table; in particular how to proceed when violence has been used among neighbors. This article focuses on this tension and, for that, this presents a description of the boundaries of transitional justice and discusses the contexts of opportunity where the horizontal victimization has taken place in a Colombian region strongly affected by the armed conflict, la Sierra de La Macarena. The article concludes with the formulation of a hypothesis aimed at proposing a possible alternative in order to overcome the horizontal violence in the post conflict:, which is the possible complementarity between transitional mechanisms and the local experiences of community justice.

Palavras-chave : Transitional pluralism; horizontal victimization; Post-conflict; legal pluralism; Colombian conflict.
