NEW CONSTITUTIONALISM IN LATIN AMERICA
This book is dedicated to Juan Fernando Jaramillo who did not live to see the fruits of our joint labours and the publication of this book. Juan was not only an important scholar on the new Colombian constitution and the related rights revolution; we will also remember him as an open-minded and humorous person with a big heart, and as a committed defender of human rights and democracy.
