LAW Nº 9602 OF THE PROVINCE OF TUCUMÁN, ARGENTINA: A MECHANISM FOR ADAPTING TO THE LAW OF VULNERABILITIES

Abstract

In mid-September 2022, the Legislature of Tucumán conceived a mechanism aimed at providing specific protection to individuals who are experiencing natural conditions or circumstances that hinder the development of their personal autonomy or the enjoyment of essential rights, and who, consequently, suffer from defencelessness and interdependence. This regulation oscillates between the unavoidable obligation to shelter the legitimate claims for equality and justice presented by vulnerable subjects and the complexity of doing so through a concept that multiplies the possible responses, potentially damaging the sustainability of State resources. Therefore, the best solution is to concentrate on specific cases, relying on the collaboration of the Inter-American System of Human Rights Protection, as it clearly indicates the degree of fragility that warrants robust protection.
