NOGUERA-FERNANDEZ, Albert y CRIADO DE DIEGO, Marcos. The Colombian Constitution of 1991 as the Starting Point of a New Constitutionalism in Latin America. Estud. Socio-Juríd [online]. 2011, vol.13, n.1, pp.15-49. ISSN 0124-0579.
The objective of this article is to show that the Colombian Constitution of 1991 has certain traits that clearly differentiate it from Western constitutional tradition. Some of these traits would later be included in constitutional processes and constitutions in Venezuela (1999), Ecuador (1998 and 2008) and Bolivia (2009), in a process collectively known as Latin American Neo-Constitutionalism. This paper intends to demonstrate how the text of the Colombian Constitution represents a turning point that marks the beginning and establishes the foundations for the development of a home-grown constitutional form in Latin America over the last two decades.
