Abstract
El lawfare es un concepto jurídico político que se encuentra en boga en América
Latina y da cuenta del uso indebido del Derecho, en el ámbito de la política, como
un arma de guerra, en principio ideológicamente neutral, que busca,
judicializando ciertas causas, la destrucción de la imagen pública y la
inhabilitación de un adversario o enemigo político, contando para ello con el
apoyo de los medios de comunicación hegemónicos y en muchos casos
concentrados en pocos grupos de poder, a fin de dar cobertura mediática amplia
a determinadas denuncias. De ese modo, buscan manufacturar cierto consenso
en la opinión pública, denigrando o destruyendo la imagen de ciertos actores
políticos, generalmente buscando mantener el statu quo y, por tanto, bloqueando
y atacando cualquier propuesta de cambio en la sociedad.
Lawfare is a political legal concept that is in vogue in Latin America and accounts for the improper use of Law, in the field of politics, as a weapon of war, ideologically neutral in principle, that seeks, by prosecuting certain causes, the destruction of the public image and the disqualification of a political adversary or enemy, counting for this with the support of the hegemonic media and in many cases concentrated in a few power groups, in order to give wide media coverage to certain complaints. In this way, they seek to manufacture a certain consensus in public opinion, denigrating or destroying the image of certain political actors, generally seeking to maintain the status quo and, therefore, blocking and attacking any proposal for change in society.
