HISTORY OF SHAME - Jorge Henao - Bog

This paper offers a key to the interpretation of the application and validity of human rights in Colombia. The situations of abuse of the population by the State and various actors in the conflict are evidence of the country's social crisis, the impunity for such crimes, and the shortcomings in the implementation of a culture of peace. Thus, addressing the nature of fundamental rights today raises the question of their legitimacy, whether they could be considered an instrument of ideological domination, as elements of struggle, or, on the contrary, their legal defense is supported by a hermetic and corrupt legislative apparatus.
