Desafíos en la implementación de la Ley 1996 de 2019 para el reconocimiento de la capacidad jurídica de personas con discapacidad mental en Colombia. Un cambio de paradigma

Abstract

The investigation, carries out an analysis of the legal implications derived from the promulgation of Law 1996 of 2019, which brings with it the recognition of the full legal capacity of persons with disabilities in Colombia, and eliminates from the internal legal order the figure of the judicial interdiction, mechanism traditionally used for the subtraction of the legal capacity and substitution of the will of those who suffered some type of mental disability, which supposes a change of paradigm in front of the Colombian civil legal tradition, in force for 200 years. It is structured as a legal research, through a review of the existing literature incorporating the theoretical, legal basis, with the current discussions.
