CAMACHO VINUEZA, Daniela. The right to connectivity and its relationship with the inter-American principle of progressive development: The new reality after the COVID-19 pandemic. Justicia [online]. 2023, vol.28, n.43, pp.157-170. Epub 13-Dic-2023. ISSN 0124-7441. https://doi.org/10.17081/just.28.43.6439.
The objective of this article is to explain the way in which access to connectivity is expressly related to the inter-American principle of progressive development, a panorama that was glimpsed after the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic. In order to fulfill this objective, a qualitative methodology with a hermeneutical historical approach has been used that seeks to analyze Internet access as a possible human right, for which a normative, doctrinal and jurisprudential analysis is carried out that allows verifying whether or not it is such categorization possible. After the development of the investigation, interesting results were obtained, since it was identified that the States should take measures to avoid contagion, and seek respect for rights as normally as possible. Thus, countries like Colombia declared a state of exception, which obtained the legitimate limitation of fundamental rights; for their part, the International Systems for the Protection of Human Rights, spoke out emphasizing the attention that the vulnerable population must pay attention to, and when accessing the information that must be guaranteed to the entire population in this type of scenario, to conclude that access to connectivity and the internet is a first-hand necessity, being also a means to promote the effectiveness of rights and, in turn, implies the social, economic and legal evolution of States, attending to the new needs that are observed after the change of paradigm and context that the new reality brings with it.
