Resumen
Las prácticas socialmente responsables se establecen como obligación constitucional para dar cumplimiento a los principios de función social y ecológica de la empresa, y se traducen en preservación de recursos naturales, en protección a la biodiversidad y en garantía de derechos humanos como la salud y el medioambiente sano. Estos derechos consagrados no solo en la Carta Magna, sino en instrumentos internacionales se constituyen como compromisos del Estado, cuyo incumplimiento puede derivar en responsabilidad de él mismo ante escenarios internacionales. La afirmación sobre la obligatoriedad en el cumplimiento de la Responsabilidad Social Empresarial en el área medioambiental se sustenta en el constitucionalismo principialista, que defiende la obligatoriedad de la totalidad del texto constitucional y exige un camino para garantizar los derechos y principios allí reconocidos. Este artículo construye un criterio de interpretación respecto de la obligatoriedad de la figura de la Responsabilidad Social Empresarial en el área medioambiental, a partir del análisis de normativa nacional, esencialmente de la Constitución Política de Colombia, y de normativa internacional, estudiando aquellos instrumentos que regulan la protección del medioambiente.
Socially responsible practices are established as a constitutional obligation to comply with the principles of social and ecological function of the company, and they are translated into preservation of natural resources, protection of biodiversity and guarantee of human rights such as health and the environment. These rights enshrined not only in the constitution, but also in the international instruments are constituted as State commitments, whose breach may result in the State’s responsibility before international scenarios. The assertion about the obligation to comply with Corporate Social Responsibility in the environmental area is based on principialist constitutionalism, which defends the obligatory nature of the entire constitutional text and requires a way to guarantee the rights and principles recognized therein. This article constructs a criterion of interpretation regarding the obligatory nature of the figure of the Corporate Social Responsibility in the environmental area, from the analysis of national regulations, essentially of the Political Constitution of Colombia, and of international regulations, studying those instruments that regulate the protection of the environment.
