Critical Historicity of Latin American and Caribbean Constitutionalism

Abstract

The theme of the research presented here deals with the historicity of Latin American and Caribbean constitutionalism from the reading of critical thinking. In this sense, the study is delimited by the sociopolitical relationship between the struggles for liberation at its intersection with the constituent power and human rights, both based on popular sovereignty. In this way, the legacy of two constituent experiences (Haiti and Uruguay) is restored in order to know the importance of the ruptures with the colonial oligarchic model and to redefine the foundational milestones of the bicentennial of Latin American constitutionalism.
