Summary:The appointment of judges of constitutional courts has been one of the most sensitive aspects of its creation. The reason for this is that the political forces are aware of the powers that have these courts in solving important social problems, and want to have some influence on them, projecting that purpose since the integration processes and renewal of judges.
