Criteria for the election of representatives of superior, specialized and mixed judges before the Executive Council of the Judicial Branch from a gender-based approach: notes for the equal participation Criterios para la elección de representantes de jueces superiores, especializados y mixtos ante el Consejo Ejecutivo del Poder Judicial desde un enfoque de género: apuntes para una participación paritaria

Abstract

Currently there are no criteria from a gender-based approach in the election of representatives of senior, specialized and mixed judges before the Executive Council of the Judiciary, revealing—through a legal and empirical statistical analysis—the existence of a wide historical gap of participation of women in this highest government body between 1995 and 2020, for which an alternative consisting of affirmative actions to the election process that guarantee the effective participation of women in this highest government body of the Judicial Branch has been examined.
