On 22 to 28 July 2018 the International Academy of Comparative Law organized its 20th General Congress in Fukuoka Japan. The General Congresses of the Academy are held every four years and address from a comparative perspective a multitude of topics that appear particularly relevant in our contemporary society.

There is growing interest in constitutional amendment from a comparative perspective. Comparative constitutional amendment is the study of how constitutions change through formal and informal means, including alteration, revision, evolution, interpretation, replacement and revolution. The field invites scholars to draw insights about constitutional change across borders and cultures, to uncover the motivations behind constitutional change, to theorise best practices, and to identify the theoretical underpinnings of constitutional change.

ste trabajo es una investigación realista, es decir, empírica y analítica que tiene como finalidad dar cuenta del fenómeno de la creación judicial de normas constitucionales implícitas por parte de la Corte Constitucional colombiana; concretamente, de la creación de la norma del "precedente judicial obligatorio"; estudio que se desarrolla en forma desencantada para mostrar cómo, en un caso concreto, un tribunal constitucional actúa como un "legislador positivo", y mostrando qué técnicas interpretativas y argumentativas utiliza para realizar un acto de construcción jurídica, a través del cual da la impresión de estar actuando como poder constituyente.

Con esta obra colectiva, constituida por las contribuciones de los profesores de la Maestría en Derecho Administrativo de la Universidad del Rosario, se conmemora el vigésimo aniversario del programa, con la cual se presenta un panorama de la evolución y el estado actual del derecho administrativo desde tres aproximaciones: el régimen jurídico de las herramientas de gestión y organización de la administración pública, tales como la contratación, las tecnologías de la información y las comunicaciones, el control interno o el talento humano; en segundo lugar, las categorías clásicas del derecho administrativo desde una mirada contemporánea: el control del principio de legalidad, el acto y el procedimiento administrativos, el servicio público y la responsabilidad patrimonial extracontractual del Estado; la tercera mirada es una miscelánea jurídica con aportes complementarios propios de las experiencias docentes e intereses investigativos de los autores, que enriquecen el texto.

Este libro busca responder este interrogante estudiando su origen, características y cómo se está resarciendo, para determinar si, en verdad, ello se está alcanzando.

The intellectual scope and cultural impact of British writers cannot be assessed without reference to their European fortunes. These essays, prepared by an international team of scholars, critics and translators, record the ways in which Virginia Woolf has been translated, evaluated and emulated in different national and linguistic areas of Europe.
