Incidence of the constitutional interpretation in the guarantee of emerging rights in Colombia ; Incidencia de la interpretación constitucional en la garantía de los derechos emergentes en Colombia

This work discusses whether emerging rights have the nature of human rights, which, from dogmatic and formalist perspectives, could be an obstacle to their effectiveness. In this sense, the objective of this paper was to analyze the interpretative and argumentative methodologies used by the Colombian Constitutional Court in the framework of the Constitutional State that make it possible to concretize the legal scope of new rights to channel their justiciability and materialization. Methodologically, this is legal research, conducted from the qualitative paradigm, of an explanatory type, by means of a bibliographic review. Regarding the results, the research revealed that although emerging rights face difficulties in terms of their foundation due to the absence of consensus on whether or not they have the character of human rights, the specificity of constitutional interpretation, guided in a decisive way by the political postulate of the social rule of law, the values of human dignity and material justice in harmony with the rhetorical and dialogic approaches to argumentation, constitute vital tools for their recognition as fundamental rights. This work contributes not only to advance in the theoretical foundation of emerging rights, but also to make viable the determination of their contents from the analysis of the hermeneutic and argumentative activity of contemporary constitutionalism. In conclusion, it can argue that the special nature of constitutional interpretation combined with the afore mentioned argumentative approaches makes it possible to broaden the scope of protection of rights based on the re-signification of the values that support the legal system. ; Se discute si los derechos emergentes detentan o no la naturaleza de derechos humanos, lo cual, desde perspectivas dogmáticas y formalistas, podría ser un obstáculo para su efectividad.
