Abstract

Abstract: The objective of this article is to analyze how, based on objective constitutional mandates, it has been possible in Peru to provide subjective content to the fundamental right to education. Thus, after giving an account of the Peruvian constitutional legal framework, this article examines the jurisprudential line that the Peruvian Constitutional Court has developed to protect this important fundamental right, based on constitutional interpretation in accordance with international treaties.

Keywords: Right to education. Constitutional interpretation. Enforceability of social rights. Constitutional court.
