Amidst the most violent decades in México’s history, the country is dealing with a real impunity problem. During the last decade, Mexican Authorities have responded by approving a series of constitutional reforms that transform the Justice System. Results, however, have been ambiguous: criminal justice remains hazardous - or selective -, and the judiciary is still not a reliable safeguard to infringements of Human Rights. Some people demand that politicians be jailed, others focus on building reliable public services – México must discuss how to build its Rule of Law.
Speakers: Javier Láynez, Justice of the Mexican Supreme Court; Gerardo Laveaga, General Director of the Mexican National Institute of Criminal Science; Pedro Salazar, Director of the Legal Research Institute at the Mexican National Autonomous University
