This paper examines how the practice of international election observation in the Commonwealth Caribbean was affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Many countries were faced with the decision on whether to conduct or delay elections during the pandemic. Between March 2020 and June 2022, 10 out of 12 Commonwealth Caribbean countries held elections. All these countries, except for Barbados, have had their elections observed by at least one regional or international organization during the last two decades. The closure of borders and the various quarantine requirements had practical implications for maintaining this trend during the pandemic. Most countries that regularly invite international observers did not have their pandemic held elections observed. This paper considers the reasons for the absence of observers in some elections and explores the adjustments observer groups have had to make during the last two years. The discussion also explores how Caribbean countries were able to indicate their commitment to holding free and fair elections in the absence of observers. For the countries that had observers, the discussion examines how these missions navigated issues of cost, shorter invitation periods, challenges in international travel, the recruitment of suitable observers and local pandemic protocols and conditions.

This paper analyzes "Concejo a la casa", the initiative developed by DemoLab, the Open Council Laboratory of Bogota, as the first case of political innovation in Colombia that uses lottery as a selection mechanism for a process of citizen participation. It builds upon both the conceptual framework based on political innovation and lottery, and the descriptive analysis of the data collected by "Concejo a la casa" to explore the relationship between the descriptive representation of randomness and the conditions that enhance the reduction of some barriers and bias related to participation.

RESUMEN En el presente artículo se plantean algunas reflexiones generales sobre el significado y función de la Corte Constitucional con ocasión de los treinta años de vigencia de la Constitución colombiana, a la luz de su diseño, sus funciones y el papel que juega para la consolidación y respeto de la democracia. El estudio se hace a través de tres partes. En primer lugar, se revisa el modelo de justicia constitucional colombiano adoptado en 1991, mediante su comparación con otros modelos de justicia constitucional -concentrados y difusos- en cuanto a su diseño, sus competencias y el ejercicio de su jurisdicción. La segunda sección hace referencia a los elementos que distinguen a la Corte Constitucional colombiana de otros tribunales constitucionales europeos, tales como los mecanismos de protección de derechos fundamentales, los mecanismos de acceso a la acción de inconstitucionalidad y el control a las reformas constitucionales; asimismo, se evalúa el papel de la Corte en la consolidación del Estado constitucional. Por último, se plantean reflexiones sobre la justicia constitucional y el principio democrático relacionadas con la "objeción democrática", los límites a la interpretación constitucional y el papel de los jueces y el activismo judicial. ABSTRACT The aim of this paper is to assess the meaning and role played by the colombian Constitutional Court along thirty years of came into force the Constitution, in the light of its design, its functions and its role to build up democracy. The analysis is divided in three parts. Firstly, there is a comparison between Colombian constitutional justice since 1991 and other models of constitutional justice, through its design and jurisdiction. Secondly, the paper presents some insights to distinguish Colombian Constitutional Court of other constitutional courts, as its mechanism of protection of fundamental rights and the open access to citizens to judicial review and constitutional amendments. The last part has to do with few ideas related to constitutional justice and democratic principle, as the counter-majoritarian dilemma and the judicial activism.

This paper presents some theoretical components of comparative historical institutionalism components compared. It begins with an overview of the theory and the importance its followers give to institutions in the construction of the modern state, liberal democracy and economic development. Two analyses of Latin America are compared with Korea and Taiwan during the decades in which the development model predominated, while the second shows the progress undergone by the State in the region during the twentieth century. In addition to this, the return of the state is presented with a series of measures with a content that is different to its actions in Latin America is presented.

LEGAL compliance , *LEGAL sanctions , *IDEOLOGY , *JUSTICE administration , *DEMOCRACY - Abstract
This article analyzes the non compliance of the law in Latin America, particularly in Colombia. The core of the paper is the contrast between two different approaches: the strategic vision which argues that this failure is a consequence of the lack of institutional capacity to impose effective penalties; and the rebellion vision, which explains the failure as an expression of values or ideologies. The article examines the doctrinal roots related with the strategic vision --the social capital theories, studies in Law and economics and the new institutionalism-- their reception in our environment and their application in the context of the judicial reform. This critical examination highlights the analytical differences between these two visions and their implications in the justice system and the social law: even though both visions are partial, each one of them is partly true. Compliance of law can not be achieved only by imposing sanctions and incentives, or by promoting a unilateral favorable attitude for compliance of the law. Rational behavior must also be complemented by the perception of the legitimacy of the institutions. Market and the democracy are both equally essential for the existence of a Rule of law.

Este artículo propone una lectura de los dos primeros acuerdos alcanzados entre el Gobierno de Colombia y las FARC-EP, en los diálogos de paz de La Habana, a partir de la relación entre las tareas de construcción de paz y construcción de Estado. En estos acuerdos se identifican cuatro ejes temáticos que dejan entrever un nuevo modelo de construcción de Estado: la capacidad del Estado para cumplir sus obligaciones fundamentales, la modificación de las reglas e instituciones políticas, la participación ciudadana, y el componente de construcción de ciudadanía y reconciliación. El actual diálogo de paz es una oportunidad para el desarrollo institucional y para garantizar los derechos sociales, económicos, culturales y políticos; el artículo destaca que las transformaciones contempladas preparan al Estado para enfrentar desafíos futuros. This paper proposes a reading of the first two agreements between the Colombian government and the FARC-EP in the peace talks in Havana from the perspective of the relationship between peace building and State-building. The paper identifies four thematic dimensions of the agreements that reveal a new State-building model: the State's capacity to fulfill its main responsibilities, the change of political rules and institutions, citizen participation, and the element of citizenship building and reconciliation. It highlights the opportunity of the present peace talks in terms of institutional development and the guarantee of social, economic, cultural and political rights in Colombia, as well as the role of these transformations in preparing the State for facing possible challenges in the future.

RESUMEN El artículo analiza algunos puntos del diálogo entablado en los últimos años entre Roberto Gargarella y Antony Duff. Gargarella ha criticado a Duff por defender una mirada que incorpora elementos de dos concepciones políticas rivales, el liberalismo y el comunitarismo, dando lugar a una teoría que es internamente inconsistente. El problema de dicha crítica es que Gargarella incurre en el mismo tipo de contradicción que atribuye a Duff. Luego de identificar la tensión que está presente en la obra de Gargarella se propone una forma posible de resolverla. ABSTRACT In this paper, I will tackle some issues that have been raised in a recent debate between Roberto Gargarella and Antony Duff. Gargarella has criticized Duff for defending a theory which mixes elements of two incompatible politi cal views, liberalism and communitarianism. The problem about this line of criticism -I shall argue- is that Gargarella engages in the same kind of contradiction that he accuses Duff of making. After identifying the tension between two seemingly incompatible views in Gargarella's own work, I will offer a possible way to resolve such tension.

En la interacción entre estos tres conceptos y en la pregunta por la legitimidad del derecho internacional, el profesor Weiler identifica tres etapas claves (transaccional, comunitaria y regulatoria) que permiten comprender con mayor precisión este complejo fenómeno. Abstract Spanish translation of Professor J. H. H. Weiler's seminal paper in which he explores the relation between democracy, governance and international law throughout history with a novelty geological approach. In the interaction between these concepts and questioning the legitimacy of international law, Professor Weiler identifies three key layers (Transaction, Community and Regulation) that enable a better understanding of such a complex phenomenon.

RESUMEN La doctrina del margen de apreciación (MoA) de los Estados es presentada como un avance en términos de democratización de los sistemas regionales de protección de los derechos humanos. No obstante, la mayor deferencia que la doctrina implica respecto de los Estados puede operar en favor de los poderes políticos locales y no necesariamente de la democracia entendida como la participación paritaria de toda la ciudadanía. Poner en evidencia esto requiere explorar la concepción de democracia que supone la doctrina del MoA y que ha sido poco abordada. El artículo muestra las insuficiencias del uso genérico del argumento democrático en el contexto de la determinación del margen de apreciación de los Estados por parte del Tribunal Europeo de Derechos Humanos analizando en especial el giro procedimental del MoA. Esto es particularmente relevante en los casos que involucran colectivos en situación de desigualdad estructural y que, por ende, requieren de un escrutinio más estricto que el mero funcionamiento de las instituciones representativas tradicionales. ABSTRACT The margin of appreciation doctrine is often described as a way to overcome plurality issues inside regional human rights systems. Also, the deferential posture adopted by regional courts is being praised by the literature as a democracy-enhancing approach. However, the imprecise development of the doctrine by the European Court of Human Rights has raised many doubts and critics. Among the latter, this paper focuses on the consequences of an enhanced margin of appreciation in terms of the ability of regional human rights systems to deal with deeply entrenched inequality issues.

Este artículo explora los factores institucionales y políticos que permiten o impiden la consolidación de un Tribunal Constitucional en democracias en transición como la colombiana y la venezolana. Estas democracias, a su turno, son susceptibles de ser víctimas de intentos de constitucionalismo abusivo por parte de ejecutivos poderosos, fenómeno típico de democracias jóvenes. Este escrito analiza casos constitucionales exitosos y fracasados de Europa Central, Asia y Latinoamérica para efectos de identificar cuáles factores propician o frenan la posibilidad de un control de constitucionalidad efectivo en nuevas democracias. El artículo concluye que aspectos tales como la independencia judicial, la separación de los poderes, el prestigio de las Cortes y la deferencia judicial hacia otras ramas son cruciales para identificar si un Tribunal será exitoso. This article explores the political factors that enable or prevent the consolidation of an effective judicial review in transitional democracies such as the Colombian and the Venezuelan ones. These democracies, in turn, are likely to be victims of abusive constitutionalism attempts by powerful executives, which is a phenomenon typical of young democracies. This paper analyzes key cases of successful and unsuccessful experiences in Central Europe, Asia and Latin America in order to identify what kind of factors allow or hinder a Tribunal’s effective judicial review in new democracies. I argue that factors as judicial independence, separation of powers, Courts’ reputation, and judicial deference to other branches, are key elements to determine whether a Tribunal will be a successful institution.

Este escrito analiza algunas de las razones por las que Gran Bretaña solo participó a medias en la Unión Europea y terminó votando a favor del Brexit el 23 de junio de 2016. Examina, además, las opciones que quedan abiertas para la Unión Europea y Gran Bretaña. Europa debe demostrar que puede funcionar mostrando resultados. En Gran Bretaña es necesario romper los moldes de pensamiento establecidos y remodelar la estructura de los partidos políticos. Abstract This paper analyzed some of the reasons why Britain participated only half-way in the European Union and ended up voting for Bremen on 23 June 2016. It also examines the options open to the European Union and Great Britain. Europe must show that it can work by showing results. In Britain it is necessary to break the established molds of thought and reshape the structure of political parties.

Este artículo analiza el fenómeno del incumplimiento del derecho en América Latina y, particularmente, en Colombia. Su hilo conductor es el contraste entre dos visiones opuestas: la visión de la estrategia, que lo concibe como una consecuencia de la falta de capacidad institucional para imponer sanciones efectivas; y la visión de la rebeldía, que lo explica como una expresión de los valores o de la ideología. El artículo examina las fuentes doctrinales de la visión de la estrategia -las teorías del capital social, los estudios de Derecho y economía y el neoinstitucionalismo-, su recepción en nuestro medio y su aplicación en el ámbito de la reforma judicial. Este examen crítico pone de relieve las diferencias analíticas entre estas dos visiones y sus implicaciones en el campo de la justicia y los derechos sociales: ambas son parciales aunque tienen una parte de la verdad. El cumplimiento del derecho no se logra únicamente mediante la imposición de sanciones e incentivos y tampoco promoviendo unilateralmente una actitud favorable al cumplimiento de las normas. El comportamiento racional debe ser complementado con la percepción de legitimidad de las instituciones. El mercado y la democracia son igualmente indispensables en un Estado de derecho. This article analyzes the non compliance of the law in Latin America , particularly in Colombia . The core of the paper is the contrast between two different approaches: the strategic vision which argues that this failure is a consequence of the lack of institutional capacity to impose effective penalties; and the rebellion vision, which explains the failure as an expression of values or ideologies. The article examines the doctrinal roots related with the strategic vision - the social capital theories, studies in Law and economics and the new institutionalism - their reception in our environment and their application in the context of the judicial reform. This critical examination highlights the analytical differences between these two visions and their implications in the justice system and the social law: even though both visions are partial, each one of them is partly true. Compliance of law can not be achieved only by imposing sanctions and incentives, or by promoting a unilateral favorer attitude for compliance of the law. Rational behavior must also be complemented by the perception of the legitimacy of the institutions. Market and the democracy are both equally essential for the existence of a Rule of law.
