    La Carta Democrática Interamericana y la Corte Interamericana de Derechos Humanos
    in Cuestiones constitucionales. Revista mexicana de derecho constitucional , no. 31 ,  2014 ,  185-235
    This article after analyzing the origins and fundamental characteristics of the Inter-American Democratic Charter, explores its use in the judgments (contentious cases) of the Inter-American Court of Human Rights. It concludes that despite the political origin of this regional instrument and having as primary end the collective defense of democracy, this Court has established itself as an important document in the interpretation of the political rights recognized in the American Convention on Human Rights. In this sense, a friendly relationship exists between the IDC and the ACHR that has contributed to a broader understanding of these rghts, encouraging new developments.
