because they were forced to settle there by the American and European settlers.
The selection of a jury is lengthened if this tactic is chosen, placing more pressure on an overtaxed court system. Therefore, contend these critics, it would be better to abolish peremptory challenges and try other methods of jury selection.
Answer:Enmienda (ley)
Ir a la navegaciónIr a la búsqueda
Se denomina enmienda, en Derecho, a una propuesta de modificación de algún documento oficial, especialmente en los artículos y textos de leyes y proyectos de ley.1 Asimismo, también se denominan enmiendas a ciertas reformas constitucionales, como por ejemplo las enmiendas a la Constitución de los Estados Unidos o a ciertas modificaciones de tratados internacionales.2
Las enmiendas pueden ser o no aprobadas, para lo cual deberán ser tramitadas a través de un procedimiento similar al de la norma que pretenden enmendar, o bien en el marco del procedimiento de aprobación de la norma cuando se trata todavía de un proyecto.3 Dentro del procedimiento, que será específico en función del país y de la norma, puede haber especialidades tanto en lo referente al modo de aprobar las enmiendas como en lo relativo a la forma y contenido que éstas pueden adoptar.4
Una enmienda aprobada modifica el texto que pretendía enmendar. Si el texto enmendado tenía un determinado rango normativo, en ese caso el nuevo texto introducido o modificado por la enmienda tendrá el mismo rango que el texto anterior. En el caso de que el texto enmendado fuese un proyecto de ley o reglamento, la aprobación de la enmienda implicará la modificación del proyecto, pero su obligatoriedad estará todavía condicionada a la aprobación final del proyecto en su conjunto como nueva norma jurídica.

Additional history / philosophy details:
Both English philosophers, Thomas Hobbes and John Locke, believed there is a "social contract" -- that governments came about as people chose to live under a government rather than in an ungoverned "state of nature." But their theories on what the state of nature would be like and why people want to live under governments were very different.
Thomas Hobbes published his political theory in <em>Leviathan</em> in 1651, following the chaos and destruction of the English Civil War. He saw human beings as naturally suspicious of one another, in competition with each other, and evil toward one another as a result. Forming a government meant giving up personal liberty, but gaining security against what would otherwise be a situation of every person at war with every other person.
John Locke published his <em>Two Treatises on Civil Government</em> in 1690, following the mostly peaceful transition of government power that was the Glorious Revolution in England. Locke believed people are born as blank slates--with no preexisting knowledge or moral leanings. Experience then guides them to the knowledge and the best form of life, and they choose to form governments to make life and society better.
In teaching about Hobbes and Locke, I've often described the difference between them in this way. If society were playground basketball, Hobbes believed you must have a referee who sets and enforces rules, or else the players will eventually get into heated arguments and bloody fights with one another, because people get nasty in competition that way. Locke believed you could have an enjoyable game of playground basketball without a referee, but a referee makes the game better because then any disputes that come up between players have a fair way of being resolved. Of course, Hobbes and Locke never actually wrote about basketball -- a game not invented until 1891 in America by James Naismith. But it's just an illustration I've used to try to show the difference of ideas between Hobbes and Locke. :-)
