Resumen
El Estado de Cosas Institucional es una decisión judicial, por medio de la cual la Corte Constitucional declara que se ha configurado una violación masiva, generalizada y estructural de los derechos fundamentales. Es de tal magnitud, que configura una realidad contraria a los principios fundantes de la Constitución Nacional y, por lo tanto, ordena al conjunto de las instituciones involucradas, poner fin a tal estado de anormalidad constitucional, por medio de acciones íntegras, oportunas y eficaces. Por lo general (sobre todo en Latinoamérica) al hablar de prisión se tiende a pensar en un lugar oscuro y sombrío con paredes resquebrajándose a pedazos, y personas que aun privadas de la libertad viven hacinados y en la miseria; nada más cercano de la realidad y que en ocasiones puede ser aun peor. En Colombia no escapamos de esta realidad, existe una grave crisis en materia de salvaguarda y garantía de los derechos de las personas de diversos sectores sociales, incluyendo a aquellas privadas de la libertad, a quienes no se les ofrecen las condiciones mínimas para llevar a cabo uno de los principales fines de la privación de la libertad como lo es la resocialización.
The Institutional State of Affairs is a judicial decision, by means of which the Constitutional Court declares that a massive, generalized and structural violation of fundamental rights has been configured. It is of such magnitude that it configures a reality contrary to the founding principles of the National Constitution and, therefore, orders all the institutions involved to put an end to such state of constitutional abnormality, by means of comprehensive, timely and effective actions. Generally (especially in Latin America) when speaking of prison, one tends to think of a dark and gloomy place with walls cracking to pieces, and people who, even when deprived of their freedom, live in overcrowded conditions and in misery; nothing could be closer to reality and sometimes it can be even worse. In Colombia we do not escape from this reality, there is a serious crisis in terms of safeguarding and guaranteeing the rights of people from various social sectors, including those deprived of liberty, who are not offered the minimum conditions to carry out one of the main purposes of the deprivation of liberty as it is the resocialization.
