Summary: |
The Congress of the Union in its LXI Legislature
have produced important reforms in the constitution
since 2011, Such as a broader protection of
human rights, and a explicit recognition of the
hierarchy of international treaties, collective interests
and reforms in protection law. Another
great reform, in as much as it involved reforming
and decreeing new laws, came about in 2012 by
explicitly introducing that it is everyone’s duty to
take care of the environment and that access to
water is a fundamental right. These constitutional
changes are a turning point in national politics not
only in environmental matters, but also in human
rights. A water resource is strategic for national security
and presents a double challenge: to protect
the rights of people and the ecological integrity of
the landscape. We praise that our constitution is as
avant-garde as 160 years ago when it was promulgated
as a Social State (1857), and as 100 years
ago, when it guaranteed the values of a State of
rights (1917). |
