ORDELIN FONT, Jorge Luis. VOLUNTARY REPRESENTATION OF PERSONALITY INHERENT RIGHTS? DEBATE CONSIDERATIONS FROM THE CUBAN LEGAL SYSTEM. Vniversitas [online]. 2013, n.127, pp.243-279. ISSN 0041-9060.

This paper was written in order to support the possibility of conceiving voluntary representation of personality rights. Thus, from the most modern basics conceiving personality rights and voluntary representation, it is intended to justify the need of this figure in certain conditions, whereby institutions such as respect for human dignity justify such action. While the impossibility of representing the rights of personality is one of the most accepted dogmatic conceptions by the current doctrine of civil law, this position is becoming today ruled in figures such as living wills, which is one of the main examples justifying the stance we advocate in this paper. Rather than establishing dogmas, this article is a call to reflection.

Keywords : Voluntary representation; inherent personality rights; availability; Legal theory; civil and political rights; legal system-Cuba; comparative law.
