Ocaso de la Corte Constitucional vigencia de la Constitución Política a discreción del Ejecutivo
description
The article presents concepts of the Political Constitution and its reform and revision components, as well as Democratic Constitutionalism. It reflects on the political responsibility of the Constitutional Courts, addresses the legal and political crossroads regarding the nomination and election of the Constitutional Court, and concludes that the Western design seems to be correct when all the Powers intervene. Subsequently, the current role of the magistrates of the Constitutional Court in the control of the constitutionality of the acts reforming the Constitution is questioned, regarding the suspected incompetence of the Congress of the Republic to do so in what it has designated as “competition vices” and “substitution of the Constitution”. The judgments of the Court on Legislative Acts 2 of 2015 and 1 of 2016 and of the Council of State are critically addressed, in their residual competence of constitutionality control. The fast track is questioned as a mechanism for all kinds of legal and constitutional reforms incorporated in Legislative Act 01 of 2016 and approved by the Constitutional Court. Complementarily, the limits established by the Constitutional Court to implement the Peace Agreement through the ‘fast track’ in Ruling C-160 of March 9, 2017 are referred to. Finally, the work refers to the academic discussion that Constitutional Court rulings are political, but not politicized.

Reflexiona sobre la responsabilidad política de los Tribunales Constitucionales, aborda la encrucijada jurídica y política respecto a la nominación y elección del Tribunal Constitucional, concluyéndose que el diseño occidental pareciera ser correcto al intervenir todos los Poderes. Posteriormente se cuestiona el rol actual de los magistrados de la Corte Constitucional en el control de constitucionalidad de los actos reformatorios de la Constitución, sobre la sospechada incompetencia del Congreso de la República para hacerlo en lo que ha designado como “vicios de competencia” y “sustitución de la Constitución”. Se aborda críticamente las sentencias de la Corte sobre los Actos Legislativos 2 de 2015 y 1 de 2016 y del Consejo de Estado, en su competencia residual del control de constitucionalidad. Se cuestiona el fast track como mecanismo para toda clase de reformas legales y constitucionales incorporado en el Acto Legislativo 01 de 2016 y que tuvo el beneplácito de la Corte Constitucional. Complementariamente se alude a los límites establecidos por la Corte Constitucional para implementar el Acuerdo de Paz a través del ‘fast track’ en la Sentencia C-160 de marzo 9 de 2017. Finalmente, el trabajo se refiere a la discusión académica acerca de que las sentencias de los Tribunales Constitucionales son políticas, pero no politizadas.2018text (article)application/pdfhttps://dialnet.unirioja.es/servlet/oaiart?codigo=6544813(Revista) ISSN 2346-0792(Revista) ISSN 1794-1598Inciso, ISSN 1794-1598, Vol. 20, Nº. 1, 2018 (Ejemplar dedicado a: Derecho y ciencia política0), pags. 70-89spaLICENCIA DE USO: Los documentos a texto completo incluidos en Dialnet son de acceso libre y propiedad de sus autores y/o editores.
