Así, apostaron por un Estado unitario pero con autonomía política, administrativa y financiera para sus entes territoriales. En relación con las piezas que conformarían el conjunto de la organización territorial, es decir, las entidades territoriales, los constituyentes introdujeron varias modificaciones a la Constitución anterior, creando como entidades territoriales los departamentos, los municipios, los distritos y las entidades territoriales indígenas, dejando abierta la posibilidad para que una vez creadas las provincias y las regiones éstas también puedan adquirir dicho estatus. Cabe resaltar que a partir de la Constitución de 1991 la potestad para definir, concretar y cerrar nuestro modelo territorial quedó en manos del legislador, que es el encargado de desarrollar los mandatos constitucionales en esta materia. Por otra parte, el papel que ha jugado la jurisprudencia de la Corte Constitucional sin duda merece reconocimiento, pues si bien en muchas ocasiones se ha actuado en desmedro de la autonomía de los entes territoriales dando primacía al principio unitario, el alto tribunal también ha aportado elementos indispensables para continuar con el proceso de construcción del aparato territorial colombiano.Universidad Externado de Colombia2008text (article)application/pdfhttp://dialnet.unirioja.es/servlet/oaiart?codigo=3400227(Revista) ISSN 0122-9893Revista Derecho del Estado, ISSN 0122-9893, Nº. 21, 2008, pags. 177-208spaLICENCIA DE USO: Los documentos a texto completo incluidos en Dialnet son de acceso libre y propiedad de sus autores y/o editores.

description |
With the approval of the new Constitution in 1991, the framers fought against
the excessive centralism of previous constitutional regime. It was established
an unitary State but with autonomy for the territorial entities in political,
administrative and financial matters. With regard to the pieces that make up
the territorial organization, in addition to the preexisting entities (departments,
municipalities and districts), were created some news, as the Indian
territorial entities, and the Legislator was authorized to establish provinces
and regions. It is important to point out the fact that the Constitution of 1991
left into the hands of the Legislator the power to define, specify and close
the territorial model, according to the constitutional commands. Moreover,
it must be recognized the role that the jurisprudence of the Constitutional
Court has played in the definition of the structure of the territorial system,
even though in many times its decisions has decline the autonomy of the
territorial entities in favor of the principle of unity.
