Resumen
SARMIENTO E, Juan Pablo. Constitutional populism in Colombia. Estud. Socio-Juríd [online]. 2013, vol.15, n.2, pp.75-109. ISSN 0124-0579.
ABSTRACT Different legislative acts that have been presented in recent years seem to reduce the direct effect of the Charter and to charge it with merely symbolic efficiency that compromises its consistency, legitimacy and permanence. This paper argues, in light of three bills submitted during the latest Colombian legislative session, that the constitutional system is being charged with hypertrophic symbolic powers which, in reality, causes strains between the direct effects of constitutional rules and permanently unfinished programmatic aspirations.
Palabras clave : constitutional populism; symbolic efficacy of law; legal fetishism; legitimacy of the Constitution; programmatic aspirations; direct effect of the Constitution.
