BORJA, Miguel. The denied constitution. anal.polit. [online]. 2014, vol.27, n.81, pp.114-126. ISSN 0121-4705.  https://doi.org/10.15446/anpol.v27n81.45769.

The present article examines the luck of the proposals presented by indigenous and afro-Colombian communities, during the National Constituent Assembly of 1991. These proposals were aimed to define a new territorial organization of the State, but they were discarded from the Constitution and the subsequent legislative development. We are, therefore, front of the lack of knowledge of one of the most important realities of the country: the construction of space by the indigenous and afro-Colombian communities and their political programs of territorial organization. Ideologies that in this text are referred as: The Denied Constitution. The paper is supported for analysis in the sociology of space, in the contribution of George Simmel and Orlando Fals Borda, who participate in the debate about the linkages between society and space, and its impact on the social formation of laws and constitutions.

Keywords : Indigenous; afro-Colombian communities; space; Constitution.
