Meeting with Ex-Magistrado Manuel Jose Cepeda

On Sep 22, 2022, CLACS hosted Manuel Jose Cepeda Espinoza, Ex-President of the Colombian Constitutional Court, in a warm and frank conversation about the insides of the Constitutional legal system of Colombia. From the understanding of the new humanistic advances in the 1991 new Colombian Constitution to the complex and controversial constitutional sentences that he had to deal with during his tenure as Justice of the Constitutional Court from 2001-2009, the conversation shared the principles around the "Tutela" process and implications for Colombians, and the process of Justice selections every eight years for the Colombian Courts. The conversation had multidisciplinary faculty, scholars and students from IU Bloomington, all sharing the interest in the possible Latinamerican Countries' application of Constitutional concepts discussed in the session. We also hosted a special guest, Irene Massimino, human rights lawyer from Argentina, Rapporteur of the High Criminal Court of Buenos Aires Province who is working towards her PhD at the IU Indianapolis School of Law.
