Full textAbstract:
AbstractIus Constitutionale Commune in Latin America (ICCAL) is an academic endeavour that attempts to provide an account of the original Latin American path of transformative constitutionalism, comprising elements from national, transnational and international legal orders, and where the law is placed at the service of the normative trinity of constitutionalism, namely the rule of law, democracy and human rights. In this regard, ICCAL speaks of an Inter-American law that represents a new legal phenomenon, in a region where constitutionalist ideas have allegedly claimed new traction. In this article, I develop two main critiques that can be deemed challenges for an academic project that is still ‘under construction’, and provide an intellectual map of Latin American constitutionalism that could address these critiques and serve as a roadmap for studying potential Latin American contributions to debates around global constitutionalism.

The study of the complex processes taking place in Latin American constitutionalism over the past three decades makes it possible to more objectively from the point of view of general legal theory and more accurately methodologically approach the definition of the basic characteristics, constituent elements and content of a new phenomenon called "Latin American neo-constitutionalism" or "new constitutionalism". On the example of innovations in the constitutions of Latin American countries, adopted in the late XX - early XXI centuries, the most typical thing that distinguishes modern Latin American neo-constitutionalism from European and North American constitutionalism is revealed

AbstractThis Article analyzes the rise of international transformative constitutionalism in Latin America and responds to some of the challenges to its legitimacy and effectiveness. It focuses on the practice of the Inter-American Court of Human Rights (IACtHR), the decisions and procedures of which constitute a small, but vibrant and essential, part of a wider Latin American community of human rights—a diverse group of actors who confront violence, social exclusion, and weak institutions through legal means.

Abstract In this article, we study Latin American populist constitutions and their uses, seeking to analytically understand whether populist constitutionalism is, indeed, a thing. We posit that Latin American populist constitutionalism is a particular form of mixed constitutionalism in three senses: first, as a specific combination of substantive traits that includes both empowering and (some) constraining devices; second, as a peculiar politics of constitutional change that incorporates popular mobilization against pre-existing institutions as a key trait; and third, as a particular practice of constitutional enforcement that involves weak and selective implementation, often through institutional capture. By considering not only the texts of constitutions but also the ways in which they are changed and implemented, we hope to complement legal perspectives of mixed constitutions with a sociopolitical analysis of practices and contexts. By capturing the distinctive contribution of Latin American populism to the discussion of mixed constitutions, we seek to challenge both legal conceptions of constitutionalism that reduce it to negative or constraining features, and political conceptions of populism that simply equate it to authoritarian rule.

Crisis del Estado Social en Europa: efectos en la generación del constitucionalismo social en América Latina
Resumen: En Europa el Estado social se está erosionando frente a una sociedad que por un lado está perdiendo la motivación, mientras que por otro intenta resistir. Fruto de la debilidad de las disposiciones del constitucionalismo social, el modelo europeo de Estado social experimenta un proceso de transformación del que puede salir absolutamente erosionado, o puede superarse a sí mismo a través de más democracia, una Constitución más normativa y la plena exigibilidad de los derechos sociales. En América Latina, la falta histórica de experimentación plena del Estado social ha sido determinante en la aparición desde finales del siglo XX de nuevas Constituciones democráticas. Estas tienen ante sí el reto, nada fácil, de construir un modelo propio de Estado social adecuado a las necesidades de las sociedades latinoamericanas. En este contexto, el objeto del presente trabajo es analizar las diferencias en la construcción constitucional y evolución del Estado social en Europa y en América Latina, y explicar por qué en Europa podemos referirnos a una crisis del Estado social, mientras que en América Latina asistimos a diversos intentos de generación de un modelo propio de Estado social basado, en algunos países, en nuevos textos constitucionales que tienden hacia la superación de los modelos comparados de constitucionalismo social. En el primer apartado se analizan las razones de la crisis del Estado social en Europa y los retos hacia su superación. En el segundo apartado desarrollamos la problemática latinoamericana en la construcción de su propio modelo de constitucionalismo social, para concluir con el análisis conjunto de las dos experiencias.

Crisis of welfare state in Europe: effects on the generation of the social constitutionalism in Latin America
Abstract: The European Welfare State is falling; a part of the society is losing motivation, while the other part tries to resist. As a result of the weakness of the provisions of social constitutionalism, the European model of welfare state undergoes a transformation process with two alternatives: be finished, or be strengthened with more democracy, a more normative Constitution, and full guarantees for social rights. In Latin America, the historical lack of full experience of the Welfare state has been decisive in the appearance of new democratic Constitutions since the end of the 20th century. These Constitutions have the challenge, not easy, to construct a model of social state adequate to the needs of Latin American societies. In this context, the object of the present work is to analyze the differences in the constitutional construction and evolution of the social State in Europe and Latin America, and to explain why in Europe we can refer to a crisis of the social State, while in Latin America we attend to various attempts to generate a model of social state based, in some countries, on new constitutional texts that tend towards overcoming the comparative models of social constitutionalism. In the first section we analyze the reasons for the crisis of the social State in Europe and the challenges to overcome it. In the second section we develop the Latin American problematic in the construction of its own model of social constitutionalism, to conclude with the joint analysis of the two experiences.
Keywords: Constitutional normativity. Democratic constitutionalism. New Latin American constitutionalism. Social rights. Welfare State.

RESUMO:A história do direito demonstra a estreita relação do Direito com a dominação de povos subalternizados e a legitimação de atos opressores, instituídos em benefício de interesses econômicos. Diante disso, a busca por um direito descolonial mostrase urgente. Para tanto, são analisadas as origens epistemológicas do direito, do constitucionalismo, dos direitos humanos e da dignidade humana, indagando se o Novo Constitucionalismo Latino-Americano seria um passo rumo à descolonização do direito. Isso porque este movimento ainda contempla um paradigma que vai de encontro às premissas dos sistemas constitucionais tradicionalmente adotados. O Novo Constitucionalismo Latino-Americano se caracteriza por constituições que inserem epistemologias indígenas em seus textos, aportando um conceito de viver bem mais amplo que o do liberalismo. As epistemologias do Sul, ao serem constitucionalmente introduzidas, exibem potencial para lidar com os dilemas da sociedade global. A urgência de se interrogar sobre um Direito pautado nas epistemologias do Sul advém da inquietação quanto às promessas não cumpridas da modernidade, que convocam o Direito a acolher estas epistemologias como seu fundamento. ABSTRACT:Legal history established a strong link between Law, subaltern’s domination, and the legitimation of oppressive acts to the benefit of economic interests. Taking this into account, the need to decolonize Law is urgent. For that reason, we intend to analyze the epistemological origins of law, constitutionalism, human rights and human dignity, questioning whether the New Latin American Constitutionalism is a step towards to the decolonization of Law. The motivation that lies behind that question is the convergence of New Latin American Constitutionalism with the premises held by traditional constitutional systems. Latin American constitutionalism marks itself by inserting indigenous epistemologies into constitutional texts and bearing a concept of good living that surpass the liberal conception. The constitutionalization of Southern epistemologies has also shown potential in dealing with global society dilemmas. The urgency to consider a legal system based on the epistemologies of the South derives from the unfulfilled promises of modernity, which requires Law itself to account for these alternatives as its foundation.

Full textAbstract:
In den letzten Jahrzehnten hat sich in Lateinamerika ein neuer Kontext für die Durchsetzung von Menschenrechten herausgebildet. Die organisatorische Entwicklung des Interamerikanischen Menschenrechtsschutzsystems (IAS), die Verabschiedung neuer Verfassungen durch die nationalen Gesetzgeber und die Anwendung innovativer Verfassungsauslegungen durch die maßgeblichen Gerichte in der Region haben zur Entstehung eines kosmopolitischen lateinamerikanischen Konstitutionalismus geführt. In diesem neuen Kontext hat der Interamerikanische Gerichtshof für Menschenrechte (IACtHR) damit begonnen, die gerichtliche Überprüfung innerstaatlicher Gesetze zu praktizieren, d.h. er hat bei mehreren Gelegenheiten nationale Behörden angewiesen, innerstaatliche Gesetze wegen ihrer Unvereinbarkeit mit der Amerikanischen Menschenrechtskonvention (ACHR) für ungültig zu erklären. Angesichts der zunehmenden Konflikte zwischen nationalen und internationalen Menschenrechtsautoritäten zielt diese Studie darauf ab, den legitimsten und effektivsten Ansatz für die Praxis der interamerikanischen Konventionskontrolle zu finden. Ausgehend von der Debatte über die innerstaatliche richterliche Normenkontrolle werden zunächst die Gründe für die Praxis einer starken internationalen Normenkontrolle untersucht. Anschließend adressiert diese Studie Theorien, die versucht haben, die interamerikanische Konventionskontrolle zu schwächen. Diese Theorien haben sich häufig für die Übernahme des nationalen Ermessensspielraums auf der Grundlage der Rechtsprechung des Europäischen Gerichtshofes für Menschenrechte ausgesprochen. Schließlich plädiert die vorliegende Studie für eine kontextbasierte Theorie der interamerikanischen gerichtlichen Überprüfung und versucht, den nationalen Ermessensspielraum mit dem kosmopolitischen Konstitutionalismus Lateinamerikas in Einklang zu bringen.In recent decades, a new human rights enforcement context has emerged in Latin America. The organizational evolution of the Inter-American System for Human Rights Protection (IAS), the adoption of new constitutions by national legislatures, and the adoption of innovative constitutional interpretations by the most authoritative courts in the region have led to the emergence of Latin American cosmopolitan constitutionalism. Within this new context, the Inter-American Court of Human Rights (IACtHR) has started practicing the judicial review of domestic laws, i.e., on several occasions, it has ordered national authorities to invalidate domestic laws due to their incompatibility with the American Convention on Human Rights (ACHR). By reviewing domestic laws, the IACtHR has placed itself in the middle of a dialogue between legislatures and courts that was long seen as an exclusively domestic conversation within Latin American constitutionalism. This strong form of international jurisprudence has made the normative questions relating to judicial review much more complex to address. Given the increasing conflicts between domestic and inter-American human rights authorities, this study aims to find the most legitimate and effective approach to the practice of inter-American judicial review. In line with this, and drawing on the debate about domestic judicial review, it first assesses the reasons behind the practice of strong international judicial review. In order to offer a better form of inter-institutional interaction within the IAS, this study later addresses theories that have sought to weaken the practice of inter-American judicial review based on the principle of subsidiarity. These theories have often advocated for the adoption of the national margin of appreciation based on the European experience with this concept of deference to national authorities. Finally, this study advocates for a context-based theory of inter-American judicial review and tries to reconcile the national margin of appreciation with Latin American cosmopolitan constitutionalism.

Indigenous peoples have valuable ancestral cultures and makeimportant contributions to society in general. However, despite the recognized value of these peoples and their cultures, their most basic rights have been violated for a long time. The postcolonial era did not end the internal«colonization», because in many places the locals are still treated as inferior to the other inhabitants within the territory of the Country. Nevertheless, the international law is moving in the opposite direction, recognizing the dignityand the rights not only of individuals but also of indigenous peoples, ensuring cultural security. In recent decades, relevant international instruments have been adopted, inspiring the constitutional reforms and human rights initiatives for the protection of indigenous peoples. This article aims to investigate how the legal recognition of self-determination of the indigenous peoples contributes to the protection and promotion of their culture. On that matter, the first section of the paper concentrates on the conceptual discussion on indigenous peoples, as well as the legal-political relationship models between them and the State. Second, the rights of the indigenous peoples will be examined from the perspective on international law, with special emphasis on the collective self-determination right. In the last section, the Latin American Constitutions will be studied, in order to present the situation of the indigenous self-determination in Latin American.Los pueblos indígenas poseen culturas ancestrales valiosas, las cuales hacen importantes contribuciones a la sociedad en general. Sin embargo, a pesar del valor reconocido de estos pueblos y de sus culturas, sus derechos más esenciales han sido violados por largo tiempo. La era postcolonial no puso fin a la «colonización» interna, ya que en muchos lugares los nativos siguen siendo tratados como inferiores a los demás habitantes del territorio del Estado. No obstante, el derecho internacional se mueve hacia la dirección opuesta, ya que reconoce la dignidad y los derechos no solo de los individuos, sino también de los pueblos indígenas, lo que les garantiza seguridad cultural. En las últimas décadas, se han adoptado instrumentos internacionales relevantes, que inspiraron las reformas constitucionales y las iniciativas de derechos humanos para la protección de los pueblos indígenas. Este artículo tiene como objetivo investigar cómo el reconocimiento legal de la autodeterminación de los pueblos indígenas contribuye a la protección y promoción de su cultura. A tal efecto, la primera sección del documento abordará la discusión conceptual sobre los pueblos indígenas, así como los modelos de relación jurídico-política entre ellos y el Estado. En segundo lugar, los derechos de los pueblos indígenas serán examinados desde la perspectiva del derecho internacional, con especial énfasis en el derecho colectivo de autodeterminación. En la última sección, las constituciones de América Latina serán estudiadas, con el fin de presentar la situación de la libre determinación indígena en Estados de América Latina.

In the era of globalization and the information society of the biotechnology sectors has had remarkable expansion and economic discourse. In this sense, today, ensure the monopoly of resources and important information in maintaining power over markets and consumers. Thus, as a basis for the promotion of biotechnology, Northern Social, natural resources, and the necessary information, the traditional knowledge, riches belonging to the Social South, is a classic expression of the relations of coloniality and subservience. In this way, traditional knowledge and biodiversity are constantly coming out of the Social North, appropriate for the Social North, the reason for quality is a need for dialogue on the need to build a normative instrument capable of granting effective protection to this wealth Of the social South. In this way, the present work has as scope to analyze the possibility of new epistemologies and orientations of protection to the traditional knowledge and associated biodiversity from the perspectives, foundations, principles and objectives of the new Latin American constitutionalism of Bolivia and Ecuador - from a View from the South - they are able to counteract a normative structure of agreement There are no comments on this or other items about it or for which they are interested in copyright. From the globalized world system. It is questioned, therefore, is this perspective of tutela from the look to a utopia or a possibility to be satisfied. In the meantime, in order to solve as questions and objectives of the present work, the research methodology in the trinamento: Base Theory / Approach, Procedure and Technique. Thus, as a base theory and approach, a dialectical perspective will be used, from which several conflicts between the new Latin American constitutionalism of Bolivia and Ecuador and the intellectual property instruments, Trips, and CBD have been established. Finally, as the procedure was adopted a bibliographic and documentary research and a technique used for the construction of archives and extended abstracts.Na era da globalização e da sociedade da informação os setores da biotecnologia têm tido notável expansão e expressão econômica. Nesse sentido, hodiernamente, garantir o monopólio de recursos e informações importa na manutenção do poder sobre mercados e consumidores. Assim, como base de fomento aos setores das biotecnologias, dominados pelo Norte Social, estão os recursos naturais, e as informações necessárias consubstanciam-se nos saberes tradicionais, riquezas pertencentes ao Sul Social, em uma clássica expressão das relações de colonialidade e subserviência. Dessa forma, saberes tradicionais e biodiversidade vem sendo constantemente espoliados do Sul Social e apropriados indevidamente pelo Norte Social, razão pela qual é premente a necessidade de dialogar acerca da necessidade de construção de um aparato normativo capaz de conceder tutela efetiva a essa riqueza do Sul social. Desse modo, o presente trabalho tem como escopo analisar a possibilidade de novas epistemologias e orientações de tutela aos saberes tradicionais e biodiversidade associada a partir das perspectivas, fundamentos, princípios e objetivos do novo constitucionalismo latino-americano da Bolívia e Equador - a partir de uma visão desde o Sul - que sejam aptos a contrapor a atual estrutura normativa do Acordo Trip’s no que concerne aos instrumentos de propriedade intelectual, sobretudo ao instituto das patentes, bem como da Convenção sobre Diversidade Biológica e os imperativos e cânones da ordem econômica e neoliberal do sistema mundo globalizado. Questiona-se, portanto, se essa perspectiva de tutela a partir desse olhar é uma utopia ou uma possibilidade a ser satisfeita. Nesse ínterim, no intuito de solver as indagações e objetivos do presente trabalho adotou-se como metodologia de pesquisa o trinômio: Teoria de Base/Abordagem, Procedimento e Técnica. Assim, como teoria de base e abordagem, utilizar-se-á a perspectiva dialética, a partir do qual estabelece-se diversos enfrentamentos entre novo constitucionalismo latino-americano da Bolívia e Equador e os instrumentos de propriedade intelectual, Acordo Trips, e CDB. Por fim, como procedimento adotou-se a pesquisa bibliográfica e documental e a técnica empregada foi a construção de fichamentos e resumos estendidos.

This study investigates the New Latin American Constitutionalism and its contribution to the rebuilding of the appropriation and expropriation modern agrarian model. There will be a reflection on constitutional reforms experienced by some countries on the continent, especially Colombia, Venezuela, Bolivia and Ecuador, considering that those countries recently rebuilt their democratic political projects in order to make themselves more suited to the multiple social and existential conditions of their people. Indeed, this transformer constitutional movement brought categories that, aimed at priority respect for nature and biodiversity, recognized the identity, the cultural awareness, the specific values and territoriality of the Andean native people, who have been historically put in a subaltern role. Thus, was formally opened on the continent a diverse logic than that modern, colonial and individualistic rationality, from which was built the Brazilian land appropriation and expropriation model. Furthermore, it is object of this work the analysis of the economic model adopted so far of evaluating the land in the expropriations that take place in Brazil, a model that ultimately reward owners who do not give their land any social destination. In this context, this work will try to demonstrate how the New Latin American Constitutionalism is presented as an alternative development project capable of breaking old conceptions of property that, guided by a legal owner speech, give it almost absolute character and a place in the core of the legal system. The central role of cultural practices and worldviews of the continent in the new constitutional texts, especially the philosophy of buen vivir, sumak kawsay, sumak qamaña or ñande reko and the recognition of the Pachamama rights, questioned the modern idea of rupture between man and nature and allowed consideration about alternative ways of relating to the land. In this perspective, the innovations brought by this transformer constitutionalism are able to refound the modern Eurocentric legal system regarding the models of appropriation and expropriation of the land from a different concept of development for the good life recovered from the collective Latin American subjects, who use natural sources in a harmonic and equilibrated way, preserving the spaces they occupy and territorialize and that are essential for their physical and cultural reproduction. The recognition of various territorialities sets the guidelines for the transformation of the contents of land property, which, in addition to commodity and private law contract object, is transformed in collective space where a variety of rights are fulfilled. For the development of this study, we adopt the relational perspective of Joaquín Herrera Flores, that allows reflection on the fundaments of the Latin American land appropriation and expropriation model without losing sight of its relations to the social context in which is inserted.
O presente estudo investiga o Novo Constitucionalismo Latino-americano e a sua contribuição para a crítica e refundação do modelo de apropriação e desapropriação agrária moderno. Será realizada uma reflexão acerca das reformas constitucionais vivenciadas por alguns países do continente, com destaque para a Colômbia, Venezuela, Bolívia e Equador, tendo em vista que, recentemente, reconstruíram seus projetos políticos democráticos a fim de torná-los mais adequados às múltiplas condições sociais e existenciais dos seus povos. Com efeito, este movimento constitucional transformador trouxe categorias que, voltadas ao respeito prioritário à natureza e à biodiversidade, reconheceram a identidade, a consciência cultural, os valores e as territorialidades específicas dos povos originários andinos que foram historicamente subalternizados. Dessa forma, foi inaugurada, formalmente, uma lógica diversa daquela racionalidade moderna, colonial, economicista, mercantilizadora e individualista que determinou o modelo de apropriação e desapropriação agrária em todo o continente latino-americano. Ainda, será objeto do presente trabalho a análise do modelo econômico adotado no momento de valorar a terra quando das desapropriações agrárias que, no Brasil, acaba por premiar aqueles proprietários que não conferem à sua terra destinação social. Nesse contexto, buscar-se-á demonstrar como o Novo Constitucionalismo Latinoamericano apresenta-se enquanto projeto alternativo de desenvolvimento capaz de desconstruir a colonialidade ainda presente no continente andino e de romper antigas concepções acerca da propriedade que, pautadas em um discurso jurídico proprietário, conferem-lhe caráter quase absoluto e a colocam como nucleo central da ordem jurídica. O protagonismo das práticas culturais e das cosmovisões próprias do continente nos novos textos constitucionais estudados, notadamente da filosofia do buen vivir, sumak kawsay, sumak qamaña ou ñande reko e o reconhecimento dos direitos da Pachamama, questionou a ideia moderna de rompimento entre o homem e a natureza e permitiu a reflexão sobre modos alternativos de se relacionar com a terra. Nesta perspectiva, as inovações trazidas por este constitucionalismo transformador são capazes de refundar o sistema jurídico moderno eurocêntrico a partir de um conceito distinto de desenvolvimento para o bem viver. Com o resgate dos conhecimentos e práticas dos sujeitos coletivos latino-americanos, que utilizam das fontes naturais de modo harmônico e equilibrando, preservando os espaços que ocupam e territorializam, é realizada uma crítica aos modernos paradigmas jurídicos, no que tange à questão da apropriação e desapropriação agrária. O reconhecimento das diversas territorialidades latino-americanas dá as diretrizes para a transformação do conteúdo da propriedade agrária, que, além de mercadoria e objeto de contrato de direito privado, tranforma-se em espaço coletivo no qual se realiza uma multiplicidade de direitos. Para o desenvolvimento do presente estudo, parte-se da perspectiva relacional de Joaquín Herrera Flores, a qual permite a reflexão sobre os fundamentos do modelo de apropriação e desapropriação agrária latino-americano, a partir de suas relações com o contexto social no qual está inserido.

The theme of this master thesis is the interpretation of the agrarian property, from constitutionalized legal grounds, based on the Philosophy of Liberation hermeneutic proposal developed by the philosopher Enrique Dussel and on the changes in the agrarian property caused by the Latin-American New Constitutionalism. The work aims to provide new foundations for the study of agrarian law, in a context of paradigmatic crisis, through the development of new theoretical models that rearticulate legal thought before institutional transformations. The research is theoretical and it is based primarily in the works of Dussel, and in the constitutions of Venezuela, Ecuador and Bolivia. It can be concluded, according to Dussel, that praxis is the foundation and condition to the understanding of subjects in community and that linguisticity, instrumentality, historicity and intersubjectivity are articulated in the necessarily intentional and projective constitution sense, in view of, ultimately, the care of specific needs of the subjects living in community. Law is constituted in the praxis of subjects such as mediation institutionalized by power to satisfy those needs in everyday life and in multiple fields of existence. The Philosophy of Liberation, in turn, worries about the situation of domination, victimization, denial of rights, alienation that precludes the exercise of authentic interpretation, non participation in the institutionalization of law and its meaning as well as the instrumentalization of the interpreter for strange understanding that are negativ to their needs. In this sense, the modern property is interpreted in itseconomic, ecological, cultural, legal and geopolitical negativity, from the revelation of the mechanisms that make it servesto a project that denies the dignity of nature and human work for the benefit of a economic world system that pressuposes and asserts itself with the generation of systemic poverty, non-central countries dependency in the world-system, environmental and cultural destruction, and denial of rights. The crisis of this world system opens new institutional possibilities and demands the affirmation of new projects for Latin American peoples, with the consequent need for statement of rights. In this context, the Latin-American Transformative Constitutionalism faces the issue of access to land and denies the negativity of modern agrarian property in its various dimensions, through his transformation, and in view of new rights. This positivity from the victimsconstitute new foundations for the legal use of the land and transform the agrarian property models of interpretation.
O tema da presente dissertação de mestrado é o da intepretação do direito de propriedade imobiliária agrária, a partir de fundamentos jurídico-constitucionais, com base na proposta hermenêutica da Filosofia da Libertação elaborada pelo filósofo latino-americano Enrique Dussel e nas mudanças da propriedade agrária decorrentes do Novo Constitucionalismo Latino-americano. O trabalho visa constituir novos fundamentos para o estudo do direito agrário, num contexto de crise paradigmática, por meio da concepção de novos modelos teóricos que rearticulem o pensamento jurídico diante de transformações institucionais. A pesquisa realizada tem caráter teórico e está fundamentada, primeiramente, nas obras de Dussel, e nas constituições da Venezuela, Equador e Bolívia. Pode-se concluir, de acordo com Dussel, que a práxis é o fundamento e a condição da compreensão dos sujeitos em comunidade e que linguisticidade, instrumentalidade, historicidade, e intersubjetividade se articulam na constituição necessariamente intencional e projetiva de sentido, tendo em vista, em última instância, o atendimento de necessidades concretas dos sujeitos viventes em comunidade. O direito é constituído na práxis dos sujeitos como a mediação institucionalizada pelo poder para a satisfação dessas necessidades na cotidianidade e em múltiplos campos da existência. A Filosofia da Libertação, por sua vez, se preocupa com a situação de dominação, de vitimização, de negação de direitos, de alienação que impossibilita o exercício autêntico da interpretação, de não participação na institucionalização do direito e de seu sentido, bem como com a instrumentalização do intérprete por compreensões alheias e negadoras de suas necessidades. Nesse sentido, a propriedade moderna é interpretada em sua negatividade econômica, ecológica, cultural, geopolítica e jurídica, a partir da revelação dos mecanismos que a fazem servir a um projeto de negação da dignidade da natureza e do trabalho humano, em benefício de um sistema econômico mundial que pressupõe e se afirma com a geração de pobreza sistêmica, dependência dos países não-centrais no sistema-mundo, destruição ambiental e cultural, e negação de direitos. A crise desse sistema-mundo inaugura novas possibilidades institucionais e exige a afirmação de novos projetos para os povos latino-americanos, com a consequente necessidade de afirmação de direitos. Nesse contexto, o Constitucionalismo Transformador Latino-americano encara a questão do acesso à terra e nega a negatividade da propriedade agrária moderna em suas diferentes dimensões, por meio de sua transformação, e tendo em vista novos direitos. Essa positividade, desde as vítimas, constitui novos fundamentos para conceber juridicamente o uso da terra e transformar os modelos de interpretação do direito de propriedade imobiliária agrária.

Although the idea of constitutionalism dates back to antiquity, the Constitutionalism in the form conceived today emerged as a political, social, philosophical and cultural movement to question the political domain and for the establishment of documents which consolidate liberal principles, aimed at countering the absolutism and seeking the limitation of Power the division of powers and the guarantee of rights. So, for Constitutionalism the aim lies in the protection that is won in favor of individuals, and the Constitution is the written document on which the legal system is based and reasoned, freedoms are declared, rights are established and limits of political power are set. The classic or liberal Constitutionalism, thought during the absolutist regime in the eighteenth century with the aim to recognize and make positive the rights of freedom and equality has evolved over the centuries and new rights were incorporated into the Constitutional Charters. Therefore we have new ways of conceiving Constitutionalism: liberal or classical, contemporary or neoconstitutionalism. Latin America, which was subjected to a colonization of exploitation, was forced to accept the determination of the metropolis, also with regard to the legal system and institutions. Thus, the Constitutionalism of Eurocentric and North American origin, by the colonizers imposed, was very distanced from the social, cultural experienced by the peoples of the region. This distance between the abyssal Latin American reality and the constitutional postulates, determined the rise of social movements, especially peoples of peasant indigenous origin - who had their cultures violently erased - movements that demand the rescue of their own history and recognition of their identities. Thus a constitutional movement appears to meet new social demands, which calls for another conception of the state with emphasis on plurinationality, on interculturalism, on legal pluralism and suggests an ecocentric turn, breaking the traditional anthropocentric logic and presenting the good life philosophy and the constitutionalisation of the rights of nature. The innovations introduced by this new thinking represent the way to a Decolonization Constitutionalism aiming at the emancipation of peoples of peasant indigenous origin and the achievement of a decent life in harmony, respect and balance with nature
Embora a ideia de Constitucionalismo remonte à Antiguidade, ele, na forma hoje concebida, surgiu como movimento político, social, filosófico e cultural para questionar o domínio político e destinado ao estabelecimento de documentos que consolidassem os princípios liberais, voltado a contrapor-se ao absolutismo e a buscar a limitação do Poder, a divisão de poderes e a garantia de direitos. Portanto, para o Constitucionalismo o fim está na proteção que se conquista em favor dos indivíduos, sendo a Constituição o documento escrito pelo qual a ordem jurídica é fundada e fundamentada, em que são declaradas as liberdades, instituídos os direitos e fixados os limites do poder político. O Constitucionalismo Clássico ou liberal, pensado durante o regime absolutista no século XVIII com o objetivo de reconhecer e positivar os direitos de liberdade e igualdade, evoluiu no decorrer dos séculos e novos direitos foram incorporados às Cartas Constitucionais. Bem por isso, têm-se novas formas de se conceber o Constitucionalismo: Liberal ou Clássico, Contemporâneo ou NeoConstitucionalismo. A América Latina, submetida que foi a uma colonização de exploração, viu-se obrigada a aceitar a determinação das metrópoles, inclusive no que se refere ao ordenamento jurídico e às instituições. Dessa forma, o Constitucionalismo, de origem eurocêntrica e norte-americana, imposto pelos colonizadores, muito se distanciava da realidade social e cultural vivenciada pelos povos da região. Essa distância abissal entre a realidade latino-americana e os postulados constitucionais determinou o surgimento de movimentos sociais, sobretudo dos povos originários indígenas campesinos – que tiveram suas culturas violentamente apagadas –, movimentos que reivindicam o resgate da própria história e o reconhecimento de suas identidades. Desponta, assim, para atender às novas demandas sociais, um movimento constitucional que preconiza outra concepção do Estado com ênfase na plurinacionalidade, na interculturalidade, no pluralismo jurídico e sugere uma virada ecocêntrica, rompendo a lógica antropocêntrica tradicional e apresentando a filosofia do bem viver e a constitucionalização dos direitos da natureza. As inovações introduzidas por este novo pensar representam o trilhar rumo a um Constitucionalismo Descolonizador objetivando a emancipação dos povos originários indígenas campesinos e a concretização de uma vida digna em harmonia, respeito e equilíbrio com a natureza

¿Es la integración económica, política y social un mandato jurídico en Latinoamérica? ¿Es dicha integración una de las promesas centrales del derecho constitucional contemporáneo de la región? La respuesta rápida es: sí.

Is integration one of the central promises of contemporary constitutional law in that region? The quick answer is yes. To demonstrate the reason for and purpose of integration, this dissertation offers a set of taxonomies of thirty-six constitutions of the Americas and the Caribbean for the object of illustrating and analyzing those norms that contemplate the creation of a supranational space. With a special focus on the South American experience, this work aims at contextualizing and reconstructing the historical origins of these norms, their technical function, and their status as aspirational provisions. In recent decades, Latin America has made progress in the construction of a common supranational space. It has done so precisely by ‘awakening’ the dormant clauses concerning democracy and fundamental rights. The key contribution of this research consists of pointing out the possibility of awakening and implementing these clauses for attaining "deeper" regional integration. To this effect, it understands economic, political, and social integration as a cohesive element of a commune and transformative law in the region and proposes to interpret the dormant clauses through a pro integratione criterion as well as to take inspiration from and adapt some mechanisms of the integration experiences in Europe, Africa and Asia.

Full textAbstract:
Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPESFaced with the concrete reality of the new imperialism's advance through the spoliation of Latin America through the processes of land alienation and intensification of export agribusiness and, on the other hand, of the new constitutions of countries like Ecuador and Bolívia, which institute the principle of buen vivir and the rights of Pachamama, the paper intends to analyze the relationship between imperialism via espoliation and new Latin American constitutionalism, with a view to answering: what kind of relationship is there between the two concepts / phenomena? Are they antithetical to each other? Can it be said that the new Latin American constitutionalism consists of an anti-imperialist legislative movement and legal set? With this, the investigation seeks to arrive at a synthesis on the conceptual and concrete relationship between imperialism via plunder and new Latin American constitutionalism. In order to reach the established objectives, the author adopts as a research technique the bibliographic review. It observes, from the outset, that the relationship between imperialism via espoliation and the new Latin American constitutionalism is at the same time a relation between concepts and a relation established in concrete reality. Against this, the investigation proceeds from data on the advance of the new imperialism in Latin America (especially on the foreignization of land and the advancement of agribusiness) that are confronted with the constitutional normativity of Bolívia and Ecuador in order to verify what has been the concrete synthesis between Imperialism via espoliation and new constitutionalism. The development of the work shows that the new Latin American constitutionalism, partially the product of anti-colonial popular aspirations, brings within it two fundamental concepts: Pachamama e buen vivir. The former, by not accepting the possibility of marking the land and the beings that inhabit it, is incompatible with the capitalist mode of production and essentially contrary to any imperialist longing for the spoliation of natural wealth. The second, because it is also incompatible with the marking of nature, contradicts the capitalist / imperialist logic that causes imbalances and disharmonies. However, Pachamama's rights and the principle of buen vivir alone are incapable of producing the desired transformations of reality, since they do not themselves institute the mechanisms necessary for their realization. This requires the existence of constitutional precepts that block the commodification and spoliation of nature. Contradictory, however, the Constitutions of Ecuador and Bolívia assure the maintenance of the capitalist mode of production, reason why it is not possible to be affirmed that the new constitutionalism, in the current configuration, consists in a normative standard antitético to the imperialism. In terms of concrete social relations, the new constitutionalism presents the contradictions typical of a class society, based on the capitalist mode of production and linked to the world economy in a situation of dependency, which makes it incapable of completely blocking harmful spoliation imperialist practices To the full realization of the good life and the realization of the rights of Pachamama.
Diante da realidade concreta do avanço do novo imperialismo via espoliação sobre a América Latina por meio dos processos de estrangeirização da terra e intensificação do agronegócio exportador e, de outro lado, das novas constituições de países como Equador e Bolívia, que instituem o princípio do buen vivir e os direitos da Pachamama, o trabalho pretende analisar a relação entre imperialismo via espoliação e novo constitucionalismo latino-americano, com vistas a responder: que tipo de relação há entre os dois conceitos/fenômenos? São eles antitéticos um em relação ao outro? Podese dizer que o novo constitucionalismo latino-americano consiste em movimento e conjunto jurídico normativo antiimperialista? Com isso, a investigação busca chegar a uma síntese sobre a relação conceitual e concreta entre imperialismo via espoliação e novo constitucionalismo latino-americano. Para alcançar os objetivos estabelecidos, o autor adota como técnica de pesquisa a revisão bibliográfica. Observa, de partida, que a relação entre imperialismo via espoliação e o novo constitucionalismo latino-americano é, ao mesmo tempo, uma relação entre conceitos e uma relação que se estabelece na realidade concreta. Frente a isso, a investigação procede a partir de dados sobre o avanço do novo imperialismo na América Latina (especialmente acerca da estrangeirização da terra e avanço do agronegócio) que são confrontados com a normatividade constitucional de Bolívia e Equador a fim de verificar qual tem sido a síntese concreta entre imperialismo via espoliação e novo constitucionalismo. O desenvolvimento do trabalho mostra que o novo constitucionalismo latino-americano, parcialmente produto de aspirações populares anticolonialistas, traz em seu seio dois conceitos fundamentais: Pachamama e buen vivir. O primeiro, por não aceitar a possibilidade de mercadorização da terra e dos seres que a habitam, é incompatível com o modo de produção capitalista e essencialmente contrário a qualquer anseio imperialista de espoliação de riquezas naturais. O segundo, por ser também incompatível com a mercadorização da natureza, contraria a lógica capitalista/imperialista causadora de desequilíbrios e desarmonias. Porém, os direitos da Pachamama e o princípio do buen vivir sozinhos são incapazes de produzir as transformações da realidade desejadas, já que não instituem eles próprios os mecanismos necessários à sua efetivação. Esta requer a existência de preceitos constitucionais que bloqueem a mercadorização e espoliação da natureza. Contraditoriamente, no entanto, as Constituições de Equador e Bolívia asseguram a manutenção do modo de produção capitalista, razão pela qual não se pode afirmar que o novo constitucionalismo, na configuração atual, consista em um padrão normativo antitético ao imperialismo. Em termos de relações sociais concretas, o novo constitucionalismo apresenta as contradições próprias de uma sociedade de classes, assentada sobre o modo de produção capitalista e atrelada à economia mundial em situação de dependência, o que lhe torna incapaz de bloquear por completo práticas imperialistas espoliatórias prejudiciais à realização plena do buen vivir e à efetivação dos direitos da Pachamama.

This chapter examines Woodrow Wilson's attempts to foster constitutionalism in Latin America through imperialist interventions that commenced shortly after he was elected president in 1913. It begins with a discussion of three policy instruments that Wilson found at his disposal after he assumed the presidency and that he could use to promote constitutional democracy in Latin America: limited military occupation and control of customs houses, economic influence, and international agreements. The chapter then assesses Wilson's interventionist policy in Mexico and the Dominican Republic, along with the failure of Wilsonianism in the Philippines and the Dominican Republic. It also considers the limits of Wilson's democratic initiatives abroad before concluding with an analysis of four distinct U.S. policies aimed at fostering political stability in Latin America and ensuring that American security interests would not be threatened.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter analyzes “ius constitutionale commune in Latin America” (ICCLA) in light of comparative international law. For the proponents of ICCLA, this represents a common public law of the region that emerges through judicial dialogue among the Inter-American Court of Human Rights (IACHR) and Latin American national courts. This chapter questions this assumption, first by focusing on the ideological and theoretical genesis of this project, which is the product of a trans-regional academic discourse centered on a German conception of European constitutionalism (Gemeineuropäisches Verfassungsrecht). Next, it addresses the main features of the regional judicial dialogue, considering whether it truly reveals a pluralistic conversation, or instead denotes a monologue promoted by the IACHR. It argues that the latter comes closer to the truth, a conclusion that leads to a reconsideration of the pluralistic narrative about ICCLA. This, in turn, raises serious doubts about the emergence of ius commune in Latin America.

This chapter offers a comparative study between the judiciaries of France/Europe and Colombia/Latin America, in the context of the 'fundamental rights revolution'. After explaining the Franco-European system of interaction, it assesses what this analysis may suggest regarding the elaboration of human rights jurisprudence in Colombia and other Latin American countries that operate under the Inter-American Human Rights System. Whereas Colombia has distinct 'judicial hierarchies' (Constitutional Court, Supreme Court, and State Council), there is only one court at the international level: The Inter-American Court of Human Rights (ICtHR). This is one of the key differentiators with the European system, where there is an institutional competition in the fundamental rights front between the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) and the European Court of Justice (ECJ). Therefore, the differences amongst the systems affect the circulation and intensification of fundamental rights in the Latin American context.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter addresses the changing role and reception of international law into domestic constitutional jurisdictions in Latin America and Europe. It begins by presenting a descriptive analysis of the differences between Europe and Latin America. Despite the existence of the 'conventionality control' doctrine developed in Latin America by the Inter-American Court of Human Rights (ICtHR), the European context seems more complex and diverse due to the 'three spheres of human rights protection': the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR), the European Court of Justice (ECJ), and the national constitutional courts. The chapter then argues that, despite the fact that the multilevel architecture of protection provides States with a large range of opportunities for improving the effective protection of human rights both in Europe and Latin America, in practice, the most relevant level of guaranteeing such protection still seems to be at the domestic constitutional level. After exploring the 'conventionality control' and the application of the 'constitutionality block' doctrine developed by the Colombian Constitutional Court, it turns to examine the 'margin of appreciation doctrine'. Paradoxically, this doctrine, introduced by the ECtHR, has recently regained power both in Europe and Latin America as a bedrock of the 're-birth' of nationalistic movement.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter presents a critical approach towards the role that many courts are assuming in the protection of socio-economical rights in the Latin American context. It argues that the proper role of courts must necessarily vary according to the formulation of the social right in question. As a general rule, the more absolute and specifically formulated the right — or its corresponding obligation — the higher the institutional competence (legitimacy and competency) of courts will tend to be, and vice versa. When obligations are stated in vague fashion, such as the right to housing, health, and education in Colombia, Brazil, and South Africa, the room left for interpreting contending definitions is not only ample, but it often involves the intractable question of social policy design that must be studied by the executive and legislative branches. The chapter then contends that courts should play, at most, a complementary role. It invites courts to take more creative approaches in the enforcement of socio-economic rights.
