El presente número de Oñati Socio-legal Series es el resultado de las discusiones y los encuentros llevados a cabo en el marco del workshop titulado La sociología jurídica en América Latina y el Caribe: debates actuales y perspectivas futuras. En vista del crecimiento y la riqueza del conocimiento socio-jurídico en la región y las potencialidades que emergen de las realidades del sur global, consideramos necesario adelantar preguntas sobre el estado de arte de la sociología jurídica y las expectativas hacia el futuro. Esperamos que la agenda de trabajo que se desenvuelve en la presente contribución abone a una sociología jurídica crítica, que consolide el campo no solamente en el rigor académico que muestre la potencia de las apuestas interdisciplinarias; sino también en el compromiso social que aporte a la transformación de las sociedades latinoamericanas. This issue of Oñati Socio-legal Series is the result of the discussions and encounters from the workshop Sociology of law in Latin America and the Caribbean: current debates and future perspective. In view of the growth and potential that emerges from the global south realities, we believe it necessary to put forward questions over sociology of law’s state of the art and its expectations for the future in Latin America. We hope that the work agenda that unveils in this issue contributes to a critical sociology of law. This entails not only bringing out the academic rigour of interdisciplinary approaches; but also a social commitment with the transformation of Latin-American societies.

El presente artículo sostiene que es posible pensar al Instituto Internacional de Sociología Jurídica de Oñati (IISJ) como centro a partir del cual se puede proyectar la mirada sobre los estudios de sociología jurídica respecto de la región de América Latina, mediante la construcción de un universo epistémico como estrategia metodológica para dar cuenta de las temáticas más relevantes en el desarrollo de este campo. Si bien la discusión aborda solamente la producción académica de una institución, se inserta a su vez en el panorama más amplio de la sociología jurídica de la región. Es un estado del arte acotado que se enfoca en el análisis de las principales temáticas del universo epistémico generado: criminología, administración de justicia, participación política, perspectivas teóricas, pluralismo y pueblos indígenas, economía, género, urbanismo y profesión jurídica. This article claims that it is possible to think the Oñati International Institute for the Sociology of Law (IISL) as a center point from which to project a perspective on the sociology of law studies regarding Latin America, through the construction of an epistemic universe as methodological strategy to account for the most relevant topics in the development of this field. Although the discussion can only address the work on Latin America produced by a single institution, it is also embedded in the wider field of sociology of law in the region. It is a bounded state of the art that focusses in the analysis of the main thematic of the epistemic universe: criminology, justice administration, political participation, theoretical perspectives, pluralism and indigenous peoples, economics, gender, urbanism and the legal profession.

This article aims to highlight the way through which the weaving of a value and two legal concepts in the loom of Articles 2 and 19 of the Treaty on European Union ('TUE') by the Court of Justice of the European Union has produced a new institutional obligation of Member States and a new legal formula, in order to ensure the integrity and the application of the rule of law within the Union, alongside other rather political processes such as Article 7 TUE. These include the value of the rule of law, referred to in Article 2 TUE, and the concepts of a) effective judicial protection under Article 19 TUE and enshrined in Article 47 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union and b) judicial independence, as a more specific aspect of the latter, enshrined also in Article 47 of the Charter. The new institutional obligation, deriving from Article 19 (1) TUE, places judicial independence at the heart of the rule of law, while setting limits on the Member States' discretion in the organization of their judicial systems.
