Summary: The present article is an advance of investigation stating about how to establish which have been the essentials that disabled in opinion of the Constitutional Court the implementation of the perfectionism in Colombia. The perfectionism is a philosophical and political theory that establishes the need for the State to interfere in the subjective orbit of the individual so that it promotes lives in a morally good. In the judgments C-221/94, C-040/06 and C-491/12 it declares the denial of the possibility of the Colombian State of adopting political perfectionists that stimulate lives in a morally good, because with it acceptance the right of neutrality, the autonomy and the individual freedom of the citizens would be violated. Nevertheless, from the use of the inductive method, present anti-perfectionists confront the main arguments in the judgments of the Court with the interpretations of argumentative authors like Juan Carlos Mougan, Joseph Raz and Pablo Da Silveira, to finally establish that there exists another reading of the concept of autonomy and of individual freedom from the perfectionism in that there is a current social dimension that would justify the state intervention in the topics tackled by the Court in its judgments. It could be concluded that the perfectionism does not turn out to be antagonistic of the liberalism; on the contrary it is articulated in some of its main positions as for example, the protection and respect of the autonomy, the freedom and the pluralism.
