Spanish term

justicia propia

Spanish to English Law/Patents Law (general) types of law
Para una articulación descolonizadora entre la justicia estatal y la justicia propia
El presente documento subraya la importancia de descolonizar la justicia estatal en un escenario de justicia transicional. De esta manera se puede desarrollar y materializar el pluralismo jurídico, con miras a generar procesos restaurativos que dignifiquen los derechos de los pueblos indígenas, rrom, negros, afrocolombianos, raizales y palenqueros, afectados de manera grave, diferenciada pero siempre desproporcionada, en el marco del conflicto armado. La idea central de este documento es: el derecho ordinario representa un proyecto hegemónico monocultural, que se disfraza, se cambia de nombre, se apropia de luchas y se adapta, para silenciar sujetos considerados como “otros” en sus múltiples y variados procesos y contextos culturales. La opresión y exclusión, si bien no nacen en el derecho, son muchas veces legitimadas y profundizadas por el derecho. Las normas jurídicas sirven como meros enunciados de formas ideales de conductas o derechos, que en la práctica no se materializan sobre todo con relación a las poblaciones o los pueblos que más se podrían beneficiar con la aplicación efectiva de las normas.

Toni Castano Sep 19, 2020:
@pistacho Thanks for confirming it´s a different context now. At first sight, it didn´t look like that.
pistacho (asker) Sep 18, 2020:
Hi Toni... yes, it's a completely different context this time.
Taña Dalglish Sep 18, 2020:
@ Toni Agree with you 100%. I posted some references, some relating to Colombia, which is the country involved, and personally (but I don't make the decision here), "private justice" means little to me! I alluded to "indigenous justice/autonomous justice or community justice" in the links I provided. Thanks and keep safe!
Toni Castano Sep 18, 2020:
@Taña Thank you, Taña. I forgot posting the link. Yes, it´s surprising that exactly the same question is posted again two years later. Perhaps the context has changed since then (although it doesn´t look like that). Perhaps pistacho is ready to clarify.
Quite apart from this, I tend to think like you, Taña, "private justice" seems odd in this context, just my personal opinion.
Taña Dalglish Sep 18, 2020:
@ Toni Agree with you now that I've also found the previous posting:

Context international organizations (vigilante justice was the chosen answer)


Pistacho's question 31 July 2018 (and a bit of discussion here).
Personally, I don't think "private justice" works here.

Spanish term or phrase: justicia propia
English translation: private justice / customary justice
Toni Castano Sep 18, 2020:
@pistacho Why the same question "only" two years and two months after being asked for the first time? Were you not satisfied with the answers posted on that occasion? Or is the context new now?

private justice / customary justice

Customary law is informal and is geared to the needs of the people it serves. It is not written down and rarely requires reference to broad generalisations or abstractions or to carefully constructed analogies from the past. It is characterised mostly by its remarkable flexibility and pluralism. As indicated earlier, it differs from place to place and ethnic group to ethnic group, and even from time to time within a single area as leaders change. The customary justice system therefore does not emphasise rules for the delivery of justice, such as fairness, nor does it endeavour to emphasise the rule of law.

Justice for its own sake

While it is true that custom has served as a subsidiary source of law at least in the common law system (see James' Introduction to English Law), I don't think it is what is meant in the present context. It seems to meet that the author of the text wants to differentiate between statutory justice and what he/she considers to be real or actual justice.

personal justice

Se trata de individuos entre contextos de cultura variada.
(It's in connection with individuals among contexts of diverse culture.)

The intentions of maintaining social welfare and good health alongside the existing laws and rules on social conduct compared with the reality of the difficulties which may arise among social diversity are mentioned.

(Se mencionan las intenciones de mantener el bienestar social y la buena salud al lado de las leyes existentes y las reglas sobre la conducta social, comparadas con la realidad de las dificultades que pueden surgir entre los pueblos de diversidad social y cultural.)

"Justicia Propia y desplazamiento forzado en la comunidad:
Para analizar esta problemática se contó con el derecho como ciencia normativa, en cuanto describe reglas de comportamiento social, así como el papel que establece frente al desplazamiento forzado, al derecho propio y a los derechos de los pueblos indígenas, la materialización de estos y los impactos en la aplicación de justicias dadas diferencias. Esta diversidad de factores hace necesaria una visión global de la realidad que viven estas poblaciones."

"Personal justice and enforced displacement in the community:
In order to analyse this issue, law is recognised as a standard of knowledge as soon as it denotes rules of social conduct (maxims). Therefore it defines the role which is established before enforced displacements, to the personal justice and the rights of native communities (townships), the materialisation of such and the impacts of the application of the differing given justices. This diversity of elements (agents or contributing factors) necessitates a global vision of the reality in which those population groups live."
Example sentence:

Las normas jurídicas sirven como meros enunciados de formas ideales de conductas o derechos, que en la práctica no se materializan sobre todo con relación a las poblaciones o a los pueblos que más se podrían beneficiar con la aplicación efectiva de

Legal norms serve as mere statements ideally from 'conduct and law', which, in practice do not become reality, particularly with respect to native populations or communities which could benefit from an effective application of lawful norms or rules.

The last two links seems to allude to "indigenous justice" or perhaps autonomous justice might be a good term to describe justice among the indigenous tribes mentioned.
