Aplicación judicial en Chile del "ius cogens" como manifestación de la internacionalización del Derecho interno en materia de protección de la dignidad humana

Abstract

In this work we analyze the Chilean jurisprudence to demonstrate that, by applying the ius cogens in specific legal cases, the Domestic Law has been internationalized in terms of protection of the human dignity. We hereby account for the ius cogens concept according to the Chilean judges, the arguments used to include it in the internal order and the legal consequences of applying it, especially within the scope of liability due to violations of human dignity.
