FARIAS CALDERON, Ana. Competences and controls in a constitutional rule of law. Rev. Derecho [online]. 2013, n.40, pp.53-79. ISSN 0121-8697.

The legal competence and the control mechanisms that can be activated to limit the power of the authorities involved in proceedings that protect human rights for the Mexican jurisdiction are described. It starts with the proceeding trial and finishes with the execution of the court ruling, including the role of international instances. It is proposed that the control enabled by the courts is inter-organic as well as supra-organic. It is considered so because it is important to take into account who promotes the control and not only who executes it. From that perspective, the description of the process of control is more inclusive. Finally, the problems that arise in the implementation of policies derived from proceedings are described.

Keywords : Proceedings; human rights; control; power; limits; Constitutional State of law.
