Abstract
References

Competence and jurisdiction conflicts could be comprehended as manifestations of the incompleteness within the juridical system, an issue that law has attempted to solve through self-referential mechanisms attending to autopoiesis as a characteristic of juridic system. In Colombian law, this kind of conflicts are settled by the Constitutional Court, fundamentally, based on a stringent interpretation of the procedural rule criteria that, in specific situations of national relevance, may be deficient. Drawing from notes concerning to the nature, objectives and functions of juridical system, this paper argues for the incorporation political criteria in the resolution of competence conflicts taking as example the strain between the Jurisdicción Especial para la Paz (JEP) and the jurisdiction of Justicia y Paz in respect of the former paramilitary commanders Salvatore Mancuso y Rodrigo Tovar Pupo, alias ‘Jorge 40’
