Neoinstitucionalismo y la tierra en Colombia
En Colombia, se implementaron reformas neoliberales en el sector agrario a finales del siglo pasado, con el objetivo de debilitar el papel del Estado en la regulación económica y de promover mercados autorregulados. Estas reformas incluyeron reducciones en el gasto público, privatizaciones y desregulaciones en sectores como el comercio, la banca y la inversión extranjera. La Ley 160 de 1994 fue una medida que reestructuró el sector agrícola para adaptarse a una economía abierta y competitiva, introduciendo el mercado de tierras como solución a la distribución de la propiedad rural.

But human rights expert Kathryn Sikkink draws on decades of research and fieldwork to provide a rigorous rebuttal to doubts about human rights laws and institutions.

The Right to Have Rights
Sixty years ago, the political theorist Hannah Arendt, an exiled Jew deprived of her German citizenship, observed that before people can enjoy any of the "inalienable" Rights of Man-before there can be any specific rights to education, work, voting, and so on-there must first be such a thing as "the right to have rights". The concept received little attention at the time, but in our age of mass deportations, Muslim bans, refugee crises, and extra-state war, the phrase has become the centre of a crucial and lively debate. Here five leading thinkers from varied disciplines-including history, law, politics, and literary studies-discuss the critical basis of rights and the meaning of radical democratic politics today.
