Proposals for a new government of the judiciary in Chile
Propuesta para un nuevo gobierno judicial en Chile
Author

Abstract
The paper departs from the analytical premise that the current regulation of the judiciary in Chile establishes conditions that subject judges to the commanding power of the Supreme Court and to lesser extent of the appeal courts. Particularly important at the time of appointments and promotions, this affects the independence of judges in their judicial work. It is suggested that the government on the judiciary must be modified. It is proposed to incorporate into the Constitution a body with the characteristics of a Council of the Judiciary to administer the basic issues of the courts. With this purpose it is critically discussed how this kind of body has worked in different countries, namely Italy, Spain and Colombia. En el trabajo se establecen como premisas de análisis entre otras el que en Chile la regulación orgánica de la judicatura crea las condiciones para que en la designación o en la carrera judicial los jueces se vean sometidos a un poder de mando de la Corte Suprema y en menor medida de las Cortes de Apelaciones y del Ejecutivo. Esta situación afecta la independencia de los jueces en su trabajo jurisdiccional. Se postula de esta manera que el gobierno sobre la judicatura debe ser modificado. Se propone incorporar a la Constitución un órgano del tipo Consejo de la Judicatura para que administre las cuestiones básicas de los tribunales de justicia. Para ello se analiza críticamente cómo ha funcionado este órgano en distintos países: Italia, España y Colombia.
