Book Description
Esta obra constituye un estudio exhaustivo sobre diferentes aspectos de la jurisdicción especial indígena como institución y fenómeno social. Está dirigida a estudiantes universitarios y profesionales en general interesados en profundizar acerca del tema del reconocimiento de los derechos indígenas, principalmente el de la potestad de administrar justicia. Representa entonces un estudio interdisciplinar que si bien centra su enfoque en el derecho, igualmente abarca la filosofía, la antropología, la sociología jurídica y la ciencia política para realizar una detallada caracterización y un riguroso análisis acerca de la regulación de la jurisdicción indígena en distintos países de América Latina, con especial énfasis en la legislación colombiana.

Book Description
Las reivindicaciones de los pueblos indígenas de América Latina no fueron debidamente atendidas y resueltas por el liberalismo decimonónico, que defendía la igualdad jurídica formal, ni con las políticas indigenistas de los Estados en el siglo xx y el actual, ya que no iban a la raíz del problema, que es el colonialismo interno que sufren las comunidades y pueblos indígenas. La solución para el permanente conflicto entre los Estado y el indigenismo reside en el reconocimiento de los pueblos y comunidades indígenas como sujetos colectivos de derecho y en la refundación constitucional de Estados interculturales en América latina (no meramente pluriculturales o multiculturales), que exige el reconocimiento en un plano de igualdad de las culturas que forman parte de los Estados.Como esta refundación no ha tenido lugar y no forma parte de las agendas de los Estados, muchos pueblos y comunidades indígenas, cansados de esperar, han tomado cartas en el asunto construyendo ellos mismos sus Gobiernos autónomos, desarrollando otro tipo de ciudadanía y de ejercicio del poder y ensayando nuevas formas de entender el derecho y la política.La revolución zapatista de Chiapas es un ejemplo meridiano de cómo pueblos y comunidades indígenas están culminando su lucha con la propia construcción de su autonomía política ante los ojos de un Estado extraño, que controla y vigila, cuando no realiza maniobras directas o indirectas de hostigamiento.El libro, que el lector tiene en sus manos, consta de una parte general dedicada a cuestiones comunes y relevantes de los pueblos y las comunidades indígenas de América Latina y otra parte especial destinada a cuestiones ya más concretas de las comunidades indígenas del Estado mexicano de Chiapas, que presentan el interés de ir a la cabeza de las comunidades y pueblos nativos latinoamericanos en la conquista de su autonomía política y de sus derechos tradicionales.

Book Description
Traditionally relegated because of political pressure and public expectations, courts in Latin America are increasingly asserting a stronger role in public and political discussions. This casebook takes account of this phenomenon, by offering a rigorous and up-to-date discussion of constitutional adjudication in Latin America in recent decades. Bringing to the forefront the development of constitutional law by Latin American courts in various subject matters, the volume aims to highlight a host of creative arguments and solutions that judges in the region have offered. The authors review and discuss innovative case law in light of the countries’ social, political and legal context. Each chapter is devoted to a discussion of a particular area of judicial review, from freedom of expression to social and economic rights, from the internalization of human rights law to judicial checks on the economy, from gender and reproductive rights to transitional justice. The book thus provides a very useful tool to scholars, students and litigants alike.

Book Description
Over the past two decades, legal thought and practice in Latin America have changed dramatically: new constitutions or constitutional reforms have consolidated democratic rule, fundamental innovations have been introduced in state institutions, social movements have turned to law to advance their causes, and processes of globalization have had profound effects on legal norms and practices. Law and Society in Latin America: A New Map offers the first systematic assessment by leading Latin American socio-legal scholars of the momentous transformations in the region. Through an interdisciplinary and comparative lens, contributors analyze the central advances and dilemmas of contemporary Latin American law. Among them are pioneering jurisprudence and legal mobilization for the fulfillment of socioeconomic rights in a highly unequal region, the rise of multicultural constitutionalism and legal struggles around identity politics, the globalization of legal education and practice, tensions between developmental policies and environmental justice, and the emergence of a regional human rights system. These and other processes have not only radically altered the institutional landscape of the region, but also produced academic and practical innovations that are of global interest and defy conventional accounts of Latin American law inherited from law-and-development studies. Painting a portrait of the new Latin American legal thought for an international audience, Law and Society in Latin America: A New Map will be of particular interest to students of comparative law, legal mobilization, and Latin American politics.

Book Description
Within the Latin American context, legal pluralism is often depicted as a dichotomy between customary law and national law. In addition, the use of customary law alongside national law is frequently portrayed as a vehicle of resistance. This book argues that, because ordinary Indians are not positively biased in favor of customary law per se, a heterogeneity of legal practices can be observed on a daily basis, which consequently undermines the commonly held view of customary law as a "counter-hegemonic strategy", even if, on other socio-geographical levels, this thinking in terms of resistance holds true. Based on qualitative research, the work analyzes how internal conflicts among indigenous inhabitants of the Ecuadorian highlands are being settled in a situation of formal legal pluralism, and what can be learned from this in terms of Indian-state relationships. It is shown that, on a local level, the phenomenological dimension of legal pluralism can be termed "interlegality." On a macro level, ontological assumptions underscore that legal pluralism is still seen as a dichotomy between customary and national law. Multidisciplinary in nature, the book will be of interest to academics and researchers working in the areas of Legal Pluralism, Cultural Anthropology and Latin American Studies.
