Anuario Español de Derecho Internacional. 35, 2019, 655 - 677https://hdl.handle.net/10171/60447The economic and social dimension of transitional justice has been largely ignored in favour of traditional emphasis on violations of civil and political rights. While early transitional justice processes mainly focused on criminal prosecutions for bodily integrity violations, socioeconomic issues, including economica and social rights (herein ESRs) violations, were seen just as part of background. However, scholarship and practitioners are increasingly calling to include ESRs violations in transitional justice processes. Indeed, economic and social conditions are frequently linked to human rights abuses, often constituting a cause, means or consequence of conflict and authoritarianism. Including the assessment of ESRs violations as an issue for transitional justice might serve the purpose of establishing a more comprehensive understanding of the root causes of past human rights violations as well as to facilitate the pathway to achieve a sustainable peace.spainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesstransitional justicehuman rightseconomic and social rightsdevelopmentpeacebuildinginfo:eu-repo/semantics/article10.15581/010.35.655-677
