MALDONADO SIERA, Guillermo Alfonso. Social security in the right of subregional integration of Latin America and the Caribbean. Rev. latinoam. derecho soc [online]. 2019, n.28, pp.103-133. ISSN 2448-7899.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iij.24487899e.2019.28.13145.

Social security is a privileged right that is recognized insistently in international organizations, as well as in regional and subregional processes of economic and social integration in Latin America and the Caribbean.

This logic is reproduced in the domestic law of the countries of the region, since social security has not been alien to the phenomenon of the constitutionalization of the law, since it is characterized by its broad recognition in most Latin American Constitutions and the existence of constitutional legal mechanisms for their protection, where a preponderant jurisprudential dialogue is presented with the international and regional legal instruments of social security, unlike the regulations on the issue emanating from the subregional integration organizations of Latin America and the Caribbean whose interaction It is non-existent.

This articulation is important insofar as in some cases it has become the only legal tool to safeguard the fundamental rights of the migrant population, since these instruments develop more specific obligations in their favor, in a region that in recent years has been experiencing increasing intraregional migratory flows.

Palabras llave : constitutionalization; migrants; international law; right of subregional integration; social security.
