Abstract

The creation of an internal court to judge the crimes committed during the period covered by the peace agreement between the FARC guerrillas and the Colombian State, has attracted many reflections on the law applicable to non-international armed conflicts. Also reaching the debate on the binding nature of the doctrine established in the case-law of the ad hoc tribunals for the former Yugoslavia and Rwanda as an international precedent for crimes against humanity and war crimes. Therefore, the article develops an analysis of the most relevant judgments to take into account in future decisions of the Special Jurisdiction for
Peace –JEP–.
