Vol. 1 (2000): Rights and Constitutional Justice
Contemporary moral philosophy provides important insights into the debate about the role of individual rights. The core of these individual rights has been called "coto vedado" to highlight their independence from political arguments. Some of the central concerns of the theories that attribute moral rights to individuals are the following: what consequences are derived from this attribution of rights for a community's institutional design? In what way may this core of individual rights be legally protected?; Is it convenient to introduce the rights collected in the "coto vedado" into principles of constitutional hierarchy? This volume offers an analysis of these problems.
