Abstract

In Colombia, the substantive contents of statutes have started to feed on interpretations, recommendations and commandments given by the Constitutional Court in its decisions.

The purpose of this essay is to determine some precedents about the legislative process, and to begin a reflection about the reasons why the Colombian Constitutional Court’s rules have not been able to fully impact the procedural activity of the Colombian legislator, yet.
