In this research project I defend the idea that the advocacy for reconciliation, in the context of a transitional justice project, has to be careful in various ways. One of them, is not to mistake a general disposition towards the reconstruction of the social structures -in which, one can acquire certain civic compromises- with a general disposition towards forgiveness, because, on the one hand, they’re not the same and, on the other hand, forgiveness is not a necessary condition for reconciliation.
