Introducción Al Análisis Económico Del Derecho Administrativo / Introduction To Administrative Law And Economics, Andres Palacios Lleras

Andrés Palacios Lleras

El estudio y la enseñanza del derecho administrativo colombiano dejan mucho que desear, especialmente en lo que respecta al estudio del derecho como fenómeno social. Éste tiende a ser presentado como un cuerpo de normas políticamente neutrales, construido a partir de categorías conceptuales muy abstractas, y coherente. Como resultado de ello, asume una posición “normativista” que ignora el contexto social en el que lleva a la producción e interpretación de las normas jurídicas. Este artículo sugiere que un cambio conceptual puede ser muy útil para “curar” al análisis del derecho administrativo de los males que lo aquejan. Sugiere que el …

Global Threads: Weaving The Rule Of Law And The Balance Of Legal Software, Gianluigi Palombella

Gianluigi Palombella

The article shows how the global legal sphere attempts to compensate the lack of a system (hardware) and faces the proliferation of legal normativities (software). The author elaborates on the role of the rule of law: after stressing the ambiguities and the contestability of its current uses in the confrontations between legal orders and regulatory regimes, it is explained that the persistence and promise of the rule of law in the global setting depend on the weaving of a set of meta-rules (a special kind of software) developed through various areas and sources of legalities in the international environment. Eventually, …

Deliberative Democracy And Weak Courts: Constitutional Design In Nascent Democracies, Edsel F. Tupaz

Edsel F Tupaz

This Article addresses the question of constitutional design in young and transitional democracies. It argues for the adoption of a “weak” form of judicial review, as opposed to “strong” review which typifies much of contemporary adjudication. It briefly describes how the dialogical strain of deliberative democratic theory might well constitute the normative predicate for systems of weak review. In doing so, the Article draws from various judicial practices, from European supranational tribunals to Canadian courts and even Indian jurisprudence. The Article concludes with the suggestion that no judicial apparatus other than the weak structure of judicial review can better incite …

Inconstitucionalidad Por Omisión Del Legislador, Sergio Verdugo Sverdugor@Udd.Cl

Sergio Verdugo R.

El autor aborda el problema de la inconstitucionalidad por omisión del legislador examinando las posibilidades de solución con la normativa constitucional actual, haciendo referencias al derecho comparado y a la jurisprudencia del Tribunal Constitucional chileno. Ante la poca esperanza de una reforma constitucional, propone utilizar el mecanismo de integración del vacío o laguna legal por parte de la justicia ordinaria como una respuesta para casos particulares.

The Seal Of Constitutionality Of The Legal Provisions Declared Constitutional In The Preventive Control Process, Sergio Verdugo Sverdugor@Udd.Cl

Sergio Verdugo R.

This work critically analyzes the amendment introduced by the Law 20.381 to the organic law of the Chilean Constitutional Court, in order to restore the original rule contained in 83, 3º of the Constitution, under which all points of law declared as constitutional by the Constitutional Court could not be challenged afterwards by a general action of unconstitutionality. This effect is called by the author “constitutional seal”. The author questions the constitutionality of the current rule, taking particularly into account its contextualization in the constitutional review system introduced by the constitutional reform of 2005. Then, he analyzes plausible interpretative alternatives …
