De F.A.L. a M.A.D. : el derecho a la vida en la Corte Suprema de Justicia de la Nación”: Workshop del 19 de noviembre de 2015

El 19 de noviembre de 2015 se realizó en la Facultad de Derecho de la Pontificia Universidad Católica Argentina un workshop organizado por la Cátedra Internacional Ley Natural y Persona Humana de esa Facultad, sobre el tema “De F.A.L. a M.A.D.: el derecho a la vida en la Corte Suprema de Justicia de la Nación”. El encuentro fue coordinado por el Prof. Carlos Gabriel Maino y comenzó con una bienvenida a cargo del Decano, Dr. Daniel Herrera. Luego expuso el Dr. Alfonso Santiago, Profesor de la Universidad Austral, quien desarrolló tres temas: a) la protección constitucional y convencional del derecho a la vida; b) la jurisprudencia previa de la Corte Suprema; c) los casos “F.A.L.” y “M.A.D.”. Respecto a la protección constitucional y convencional del derecho a la vida, Santiago se refirió a la importancia del art. 29 de la Constitución Nacional. También señaló la protección expresa que surge del art. 4º de la Convención Americana de Derechos Humanos y del art. 6º de la Convención sobre los Derechos del Niño. Resaltó la claridad y fuerza de los textos convencionales, especialmente en cuanto prohíben que un ser humano sea privado de la vida arbitrariamente. También destacó la mención al carácter intrínseco del derecho a la vida y a la obligación del Estado de protegerlo en la máxima medida posible...
