Transitional justice constitutes a fundamental normative tool in the peace processes of conflicts marked by systematic human rights violations, such as the decades-long struggle that has shaken Northern Ireland. Although, following the signing of the Good Friday Agreement, measures were implemented in line with the four central pillars of this model of justice (truth, justice, reparation, and guarantees of non-repetition), these have not been sufficient to affirm the existence of a comprehensive system of transitional justice within the Northern Irish peace process. As a result, Northern Ireland currently finds itself at a point of political stagnation, sustaining a fragmented society built on a fragile and incomplete peace.
