THE NATIONAL HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION RATIFIED ITS FIRM REPUDIA-TION TO DEATH PENALTY'S IMPLEMENTATION
CGCP/285/14
October 10th, 2014 At commemoration of the In-ternational Day Against Death Penalty, the president of the CNDH, ratifies his firm repudia-tion and opposition to the im-plementation of the death pe-nalty, because there is no justi-fication to attempt against the right to life, dignity and people integrity. Life represents the most valuable legal principle, constitutional order foundation being recognized and suppor-ted as essential value and su-preme social interest, by what the nations have the responsi-bility to watch over its total protection.
Up to date, this penalty has been abolished at 140 coun-tries; in 99 of them within all crimes; 8 countries abolished it in common crimes and 33 have respected executions' morato-rium. However in 58 nations still implements it.
Issue of utmost importance to our county, due that currently are 62 conational condemned to capital penalty: 59 in the
United States and 3 in Malay-sia. Thus, the CNHD counts with the Program against Death Penalty of Mexicans Abroad, with the purpose to identify countrymen's cases condemned to the capital pe-nalty abroad, as well as to fo-llow up procedural status the-reof, with the support of the Chancellery , and to verify that they are provided with consu-lar and legal assistance by this organism, as well as to their relatives to be provided with required orientation and legal advice. http://www.cndh.org.mx/sites/all/fuentes/documentos/Comunicados/2014/COM_2014_285.pdf

ARTICLE OF THE MONTH
HUMAN RIGHTS AS TOOLS FOR FIGHT
Manuel Humberto Restrepo Dominguez The Human Rights in Latin America took on special importance within social demonstra-tions at the end of the XX century when they started to integrate them aiming to give sense to their fights for social demands, economic and political, but together as guarantee of respect and recognition of the conquests for assets to cover precariousness and need pro-voked by inequalities and exclusions of formal democracies lacking of real democracy. These already reached at least three decades in force at the streets and continue providing increasingly better services to awareness devel-opment of human beings in sense of the other and of humanity and both helping to resignify conflicts between opponents and enemies and their ways to solve, being part of their exist-
ence pillars. They did so under the ethics and philosophy from which it opened space for sociology, anthropology, economics, history, linguistics, law, to turn their interdisciplinary way where they have found their best niche.

BOOK OF THE MONTH
Current challenges to Human Rights: Basic in-come and the Social State future.
Maria Eugenia Rodriguez Palop; Ignacio Campoy Cer-vera Pages: 238 . Binding: Tapa blanda Editorial: S.L. - Dykinson Language: Castellano ISBN: 9788415455431 The Social State and its be-nefits stand, with the finan-cial crisis initiated on 2008, under attack and shortages that seem to endanger the welfare model developed in Europe after World War II.
In this background, this volume is a series of collec-ted reflections on the basic income role that can play to reformulate the welfare State. Basic income is an uncon-ditional and universal in-come paid by the political community to all its mem-bers, an idea being discus-sed and debated in the academic world since the 80’s. Different chapters examine its basis and So-cial State future, normati-ve basis of basic income, reality of work in the crisis context , economic and financial sustainability of an institution.
