Abstract
En el Acuerdo Final para la Terminación del Conflicto y la Construcción de una Paz Estable
y Duradera (2016) se fijaron beneficios para los actores del conflicto con el fin de esclarecer
los hechos de violencia y cumplir con los derechos de las víctimas a la verdad, la justicia, la
reparación y la no repetición. En relación con el derecho a la verdad, la confesión de crímenes
busca facilitar el establecimiento de una verdad histórica y judicial dentro del marco
transicional. Sin embargo, ni el Acuerdo de Paz ni el resto del ordenamiento jurídico
colombiano siguen los estándares internacionales de la figura de la responsabilidad del
superior jerárquico. Esta figura es relevante para esclarecer la organización y funcionamiento
de las estructuras jerárquicas involucradas en la comisión de crímenes internacionales y la
participación de los superiores en los hechos de violencia cometidos materialmente por sus
subordinados.

Regarding the right to the truth, the confession of crimes seeks to facilitate the establishment of historical and judicial truths within the transitional framework. However, neither the Peace Agreement nor the rest of the Colombian legal system follows the international standards related to the Hierarchical Superior’s Responsibility. This figure is relevant to clarify the organization and functioning of the hierarchical structures involved in the commission of international crimes and the participation of superiors in the acts of violence committed materially by their subordinates.
