This article reflects on how to narrate trajectories of Colombian constitutional justice, based on dissenting opinions. It is built around the doctrinal disagreements that polarized the justices of the Constitutional Court between 1992 and 2000; in particular, through those abstract review decisions approved by only one vote of difference. The systematic reading of these debates shows how the relative autonomy of the constitutional doctrine operates in a collegiate judicial institution. In this sense, it demonstrates how the study of dissenting opinions allows going beyond the traditional analyses of Court rulings. Many of them tend to be carried out only on the basis of the political context, or the "ideological profiles" of the justices.

Palabras clave : Constitutional doctrine; Colombian Constitutional Court; dissenting opinions; relative autonomy of law; constitutional history.
