Control de convencionalidad (Adelantos y retrocesos)

Abstract

The conventionaly control has been adapting gradually since the early sentences of the Inter American Court –like its european namesake–, to newer, generally where there has been a positive trend. The Inter-American Court did in the early days this job without expressly saying so, but finally comparing international standards with domestic and judging on the prevalence of those. But since 2003 in the decisions of the cases “Myrna Mack Chang”, “Almonacid Arellano” and “Trabajadores Cesados del Perú”, among others, the Court began to use this lexicography “conventionally control”, which was slowly expanding putting as subjects active, first the judges, then the judiciary and in general organs associated with the administration of justice, to finally extend to all branches or powers of the state.
