Reforma constitucional y legal en Colombia, la cual honre el estado social de derecho como el garantismo jurídico en la pérdida de derechos políticos, respecto a los servidores públicos de elección popular: un estudio realizado en los grandes municipios del departamento del valle del cauca, vigencias 2004 – 2019

The Social State governed by the Rule of Law in Colombia seeks to guarantee the protection of human rights by establishing the State’s obligation to create conditions that enable the effective exercise of such rights. However, between 2004 and 2019, a growing loss of political rights has been observed in the major municipalities of Valle del Cauca. In light of this situation, serious questions arise regarding equity and justice in the exercise of political power. This phenomenon is linked to judicial decisions that sanction citizens for serious crimes such as drug trafficking, bribery, among others, and it affects not only individuals but also the democratic and social structure of communities. Accordingly, the general objective of this research is to determine a constitutional and legal reform capable of upholding the Social State governed by the Rule of Law in accordance with the principles of legal guarantees, with respect to the loss of political rights of publicly elected officials.
Migración de retorno como reparación a víctimas del conflicto armado interno en Santander de Quilichao
(2026) González Torres, Helen Vanessa; Rodríguez Martínez, Yefferzon; Arcos Troyano, Jeffrey (Director)
This paper analyzes the viability of return migration as a comprehensive reparations measure for victims of the internal armed conflict in Santander de Quilichao (Cauca), who were displaced in the late 1990s due to crimes committed by the Calima Bloc of the AUC. While Law 1448 of 2011 recognizes this right, the research indicates that significant institutional gaps and a lack of effective policies to guarantee a dignified and safe return persist in the region. To move beyond the strictly legal framework, the analysis proposes examining the material, symbolic, and political conditions necessary to rebuild the community fabric under the principles of restorative justice. Methodologically, the study adopts a qualitative, exploratory analytical perspective with a comprehensive-interpretive approach. The hermeneutic-interpretive method is based on the analysis of legal documents and philosophical texts, articulating legal categories with the critical thought of authors such as Walter Benjamin and Hannah Arendt. In this way, the article questions the legitimacy of current norms and promotes a critical look at the relationship between Law, violence and memory, ultimately seeking to rethink the return as an ethical and political gesture that manages to restore the voice and agency of the victims in the reconstruction of their own history and territory.
El precedente judicial en la jurisprudencia de la corte constitucional y la protección de los derechos humanos en el contexto de la protección al medio ambiente en Colombia.
(2026) Sáenz Rueda, Juan Manuel; Buitrago Rojas, Paola Andrea (Directora)
The present work has as object of study the precedent of the jurisprudential decision of the Constitutional Court of Colombia in matter of the control that it conducts of the protection of the human rights in the socio-environmental conflicts. The research problem is aimed at determining how the precedent has contributed to the field of the right to a healthy environment and what have been the main obstacles that have limited its application. The methodology is qualitative, of legal-documentary type, and is based on the identification, systematization and reconstruction of the most relevant jurisprudential lines in this field. The results show the process of consolidation of a solid ecological constitutionalism, where the articulation of the precautionary principle, environmental justice, the recognition of nature’s rights as a subject of rights and the incorporation of inter American standards. But specific obstacles have been identified that have limited the application of the precedent, including: (i) weaknesses in the administrative and judicial execution of constitutional orders; (ii) jurisdictional differences between environmental authorities and territorial entities; (iii) economic and institutional resistance to environmental protection, and (iv) the lack of effective monitoring mechanisms for effectiveness. Finally, the text offers a critical examination of the scope and limits of Colombia’s ecological constitutionalism, given the gap that exists between jurisprudential formulations and practice.
