Propuesta de unificación procesal penal internacional

Abstract

This research addresses the issue of the unification of the criminal process, based on the idea of many intellectuals of being able to build an international legal order that harmonizes the procedural norms by virtue of which it is necessary to investigate, accuse and judge the people who commit in conducts that can be considered crimes. Although the proposal may have defenders and detractors, nowadays so many doctrinal foundations are not required to support the claim to unify the Law. The universe has shown signs of legal unity in Latin America and Europe, and international instruments on human rights and model procedural codes have also been approved, which serve as the basis for the creation of procedural codes in the states. In the procedural sphere, there is consensus that the problems of crime in the international community are similar and the general rules of criminal procedure with which crime must be faced are similar. At the beginning of the research, the relationship between Comparative Law and procedural Unification is referred to and finally a proposal of methodological and structural principles that can contribute to the alleged legal unity is made.
