Páramo de santurbá.

Una excusa en perjuicio del campesino surateño

Abstract

This article is intended to show the community at large that the Moorland of Santurbán, which became now the Santurbán Natural Park, is turning into a “headache” for the santandereano peasant from the Suratá municipality, which is rooted in the Eastern mountain range and located on the north side of the department of Santander. The government is seeking to generate different lines for each one of them, which notoriously limits the economic production as well as the peasants' private property in that region. To develop this topic, the Political Constitution of 1991, the current legislation related to the topic and the jurisprudence of the Constitutional Court are taken as the legal framework, just as some other documents on International regulations which have been used to face analogous issues regarding water pollution.
