Abstract
Seas and inland waters have historically been spaces where social struggles have been overlooked and made invisible. This article offers an interdisciplinary analysis of the Colombian Constitutional Court decisions related to human rights violations in artisanal fishing territories. We used a human rights-based approach to study 79 Constitutional Injunctions (Acciones de Tutela) and built a digital database 'Justice in Fishing Territories' (Justicia en Territorios Pesqueros). We identify and discuss the most frequently claimed and protected rights. Most Court proceedings are centered on participatory processes, indicating that actors within the artisanal fisheries sector are excluded from the discussion and approval of development projects. We conclude that the Colombian State has historically privileged the interests of industrial economic sectors to the detriment of the ways of living, territories, and rights of artisanal fishing populations.
历史上，海洋和内陆水域一直是社会斗争被忽视和看不见的地方。本文对哥伦比亚宪法法院有关手工捕鱼区侵犯人权行为的判决进行了跨学科分析。我们采用基于人权的方法研究了 79 项宪法禁令（Acciones de Tutela），并建立了数字数据库 "渔业领地的正义"（Justicia en Territorios Pesqueros）。我们确定并讨论了最常主张和保护的权利。大多数法院诉讼都以参与性程序为中心，这表明个体渔业部门的参与者被排除在开发项目的讨论和审批之外。我们的结论是，哥伦比亚国家在历史上一直将工业经济部门的利益置于优先地位，损害了个体渔业人口的生活方式、领土和权利。
期刊介绍：
Journal of Political Ecology is a peer reviewed journal (ISSN: 1073-0451), one of the longest standing, Gold Open Access journals in the social sciences. It began in 1994 and welcomes submissions in English, French and Spanish. We encourage research into the linkages between political economy and human environmental impacts across different locations and academic disciplines. The approach used in the journal is political ecology, not other fields, and authors should state clearly how their work contributes to, or extends, this approach. See, for example, the POLLEN network, or the ENTITLE blog.
