Colombian National Political System, Pandemic and Public Order Situations

 The Colombian national territorial organization is a schematized systematized model that was carried out adopting doctrines of French law, old Spanish law and influences of English law. For this reason, the Magna Carta establishes from the preamble the dogmatic guidelines that organic entities must incur when interpreting the decreed positivization; Colombia is a constitutional republic, of the presidential type, however, in recent years the executive power has acquired political supremacy by developing a hyper-presidential system not only bypassing the other two powers but also the popular sovereignty established by the people.

The independence of the powers is subjugated to the executive branch, since the roles they have in the control and balance in the system, in this case the judicial branch versus the executive branch, is ruled and appointed by the same executive branch, that is, the entities that exercise an evaluation and offer feedback on the people-state social contract are led by people appointed by the same executive power; Permissiveness with crimes against the state and the nation, because the corrupt not only rob the state, they rob us all, it has been so much that a wrongful death in a possible accident pays more years in prison than a person who robs them to an entire population.

In addition to this permissiveness, the little political culture that exists in general in the population predominates, since elections do not cover the majority of the population, since voting is the sovereign political tool of the social contract, citizens give their vote to a candidate to give him the right to vote. The ability to exercise what determines their role in the public entity, the ability that citizens have to elect the public officials that we want in the branches of power is not being exercised in the best way.

The situation experienced in the city of Cali in these interminable weeks of unemployment, has been shocking because despite being one of the most violent cities in Colombia in the strong era of drug trafficking, the scenes of the last days recall the violent past of the campaign of horror and fear; The normality and stability provided by state control in the urban territory was completely collapsed, the situation that existed in the Colombian countryside outside the institutional framework was developed in the cities.

The shortage of food and gasoline became imminent the longer the strike passed and the inter-municipal and inter-departmental blockades developed in generalized panic, since the situation did not reach its normal systematic course. The number of alarming figures left by this strike in the country continues to grow, and dissatisfaction with the presidential job is general. The pandemic has been a perfect social control in these times of discontent and has been a determining element in the population in its support for the national strike.

The role that the state has taken through the judicial branch and in this specific case, the institutionality of control and social restriction overcoming its powers in the face of the legitimate right to protest, being the institutionality that disturbs normality in order to take action ; At this point, the independence of the judiciary has been limited by the executive power, however, the institutionality can be punished as long as all the processes required for said task are given, in this case crimes against humanity.

It is normal that in Colombia, the two most important national channels are private and are in close friendship with the state so as not to disturb their image in their mandate as long as it is of mutual benefit, RCN channel and Caracol channel belong to two of the richest men of the country and that they control a large conglomerate of companies at the national level, are among the main beneficiaries of the decisions made by the state, since non-existent taxes such as postobón-sweetened beverages are a great economic agreement so as not to stain the state image.

The only options that are available in the national case are international entities, because in theory, there are inter-institutional mechanisms for quality control of public officials, but in our country, it ends up being even dangerous to go against the state. Therefore, in practice, the social state of law that is professed in Colombia determines its obligation to comply with international establishments such as human rights and they are constantly monitored by international entities.

The legislative branch, which is also of utmost importance in a country, is represented by two chambers where national legislative processes are carried out, therefore, political polarization, and the great political control of certain parties complicates the balance of national interests. taken by the people that we citizens elect for that role. The invitation is to develop our political culture, to make the vote effective, since we are the ones who give control to the entities to govern us, sovereignty includes us all.

Sovereignty implies the approval by the people of the work that the state is exercising, since the state who has been empowered to be in the regulatory body must develop its activity in accordance with what is established in the constitution, the people who give the power By voting you are signing the social contract with the next person in charge of your role as a public official during your term, therefore, it is vitally important to choose well, and to know what power is being given to which person, however, it would not be bad that the public officials of entities that have been created for social conflict such as the ICBF or INPEC were chosen by meritocracy and not by political favors.
