GONZALEZ ALCANTARA, Juan Luis; VITE TORRES, Horacio y RIVERA LEON, Mauro Arturo. The constitutional contours of self-defense: Regarding the actions of unconstitutionality 1/2018 and 85/2017. Cuest. Const. [online]. 2021, n.44, pp.179-212. Epub 21-Ene-2022. ISSN 1405-9193. https://doi.org/10.22201/iij.24484881e.2021.44.16163.
The Mexican Supreme Court recently solved several actions of unconstitutionality regarding several amendments to State Law regulations on self-defense in Mexico. The amendments explicitly expressed the type of damages that an individual may cause under self-defense, including the death of the aggressor. The Supreme Court upheld the constitutionality of such dispositions. This article analyzes the framework of self-defense in the Mexican Constitution. The authors provide a critical lecture of the Supreme Court resolution and propose an alternative position that questions the validity of such regulations.
