The proposed goal will be accomplished by means of a brief historical account; by an analysis of the constitutional amendment to Ar ticle 250 of the Constitution; by an assessment of the deliberations of the Constitutional Court; and by an evaluation of the criticisms against this procedural option. %K Facultad de Derecho y Ciencias Sociales %K Producción intelectual registrada - Universidad Icesi %K Precedente: Anuario Juridico %K Victim %K Constitutional reform %K Víctimas %K Reforma constitucional %~ GOEDOC, SUB GOETTINGEN
