Justiça Transicional e a ONU 10.5102/uri.v4i1.246

Abstract

The aim of this article is to emphasize the transitional justice, as well as the historical moments inflicted by violent aggressions to human dignity during the authoritarian and totalitarian regimes in the XX century. Those violation experiences which resulted upon crimes of war speed up the creation of the international courts of justice, the elaboration of new legal patterns, new legal norms, which became very important for the development of the international law. In this way, the United Nations placed a key role in legalizing the international system, punishing the criminals and paying for the damages suffered by the war victims.
