The essential content of the right to due process. An analysis for its correct understanding

Abstract

This article develops the content of the right to due process, even though it has reached an important development, it continues to be the subject of multiple confusions regarding its scope and its real content. To carry out such an analysis, a review of different international treaties that recognize this right is carried out, as well as the Constitution of Mexico itself, a work that allows us to appreciate with much greater clarity the breadth of its content, but also its divergences, which make it more difficult to understand.

Therefore, and returning to the content of the jurisprudence issued by the First Chamber of the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation, as an example of maximum clarity, it is exposed what is the essential content of the right to due process, in such a way that this make its understanding possible and thereby avoid incurring a series of errors and biases when trying to explain and defend it.
