Resumen
BELTRAN CRISTANCHO, Mauricio. A sociological view of family law in Colombia. Radicalism-1945. Estud. Socio-Juríd [online]. 2008, vol.10, n.2, pp.129-158. ISSN 0124-0579.
This paper affirms that the economic and political failure of the Radical Period provided opportunities for those who proposed Regeneration as a means of defending authority. Family law became an important tool in that process. During the period studied by this article, the equality clause remained in Colombian constitutions without any practical affect for the majority of the people. Discrimination was imposed through family law over those who had born outside of a Catholic marriage and/or had not previously legitimized their union through a Catholic ceremony. By the middle of the 20th century, the dramatic situation of the nations children led to efforts to change the social prejudices through legislation, that is, in the same way the prejudices had been imposed.
