description |
The nascent industrialization of Colombia with the strengthening of the workers' movement made social conflict grow during the last Government of Conservative Hegemony (1926-1930). At the same time that strikes broke out in different parts of the country, the influence of the Russian and Mexican revolutions made the Government to think that it was necessary to stop the "communist threat" and social protest. The Conservative Administration faced the
"social question" with repression: the response to the workers' movement, which demanded the recognition of their labor rights, was the use of security forces. This article examines the role played by the Supreme Court, composed mostly of Conservative Justices, who legally supported this repression and the containment of the "revolutionary threat".The article first provides an overview of the institutional and political context in the first two decades of the twentieth century in Colombia. Then, it reviews the role of the Conservative Supreme Court on the judicial review of two legal tools that the Executive approved to repress social protest: (i) decree 707 of 1927 or of High Police, which was mostly declared constitutional, And (ii) the measures of state of siege dictated to repress the "Massacre of the Banana Region" of 1928, that the Court evaluated almost three years later, when the decree had been derogated. In this way, this article highlights how the Tribunal aligned itself with the other two branches of public power, also conservative, to legally support repression and stops the "revolutionary threat".

A la par que estallaban huelgas en distintos lugares del país, el influjo de las revoluciones rusa y mexicana contribuía a que el Ejecutivo pensara que era necesario detener la "amenaza comunista" y la protesta social. El gobierno enfrentó la "cuestión social" con represión: la respuesta al movimiento obrero, que reclamaba el reconocimiento de sus derechos laborales, fue el uso de la fuerza pública. Este artículo examina el papel de la Corte Suprema de Justicia, integrada mayoritariamente por magistrados conservadores, que respaldó jurídicamente tanto la represión como la contención de la "amenaza revolucionaria". Primero ofrece un panorama del contexto institucional y político en las primeras dos décadas del siglo veinte colombiano. Luego revisa el rol político que jugó la Corte Suprema de Justicia conservadora al juzgar la constitucionalidad de dos herramientas jurídicas que se aprobaron para reprimir la protesta social: (i) el decreto 707 de 1927 o de Alta Polícía, que en su mayoría fue declarado constitucional, y (ii) las medidas de estado de sitio dictadas para reprimir la huelga bananera de 1928, que la Corte evaluó casi tres años después, cuando ya habían perdido vigor. De este modo, pone en evidencia cómo el tribunal se alineó ideológicamente con las otras dos ramas del poder público, que también eran conservadoras, para respaldar jurídicamente la represión y detener la amenaza revolucionaria.2018text (article)application/pdfhttps://dialnet.unirioja.es/servlet/oaiart?codigo=6536547(Revista) ISSN 1576-4729Historia constitucional: Revista Electrónica de Historia Constitucional, ISSN 1576-4729, Nº. 19, 2018, pags. 505-532spaLICENCIA DE USO: Los documentos a texto completo incluidos en Dialnet son de acceso libre y propiedad de sus autores y/o editores.
