Resumen

Este artículo explora la relación entre la historia del derecho penal internacional, el giro histórico en el derecho internacional y América Latina. Argumenta que la «narrativa del manual» ha facilitado la justificación del proyecto del derecho penal internacional, a expensas de difundir una historia simplista que asume que la disciplina ha existido en su forma actual desde, al menos, la posguerra de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. El
artículo muestra cómo esta narrativa ha comenzado a ser desafiada por el giro histórico en el derecho internacional, que ha infundido una preocupación metodológica al estudio del derecho internacional en general. Por último, el artículo argumenta que la exclusión de ciertos desarrollos que tuvieron lugar en América Latina durante las transiciones a la democracia a partir de la década de 1980 de la historia convencional del derecho penal internacional señala ciertos problemas significativos en la historiografía de la disciplina.
