Abstract

OBJECTIVE: to determine the legal and social consequences of legal pluralism. METHOD: by reading and researching various books on the conception of the state regarding the existence of legal pluralism. RESULTS: equality before the law has always been an aspiration of every justice system, but this is not possible if the rules or legal norms that apply to some are different from those that apply to others, the indigenous peoples have the advantage that they can know the formal system. CONCLUSION: the legal consequences of legal pluralism would be conflicts of jurisdiction, disrespect for the right to defense and due process in the trial, illegitimacy in the election of indigenous authorities; and the social consequences would be social divisionism, impunity, abuses and uncertainty about rights and how to apply them, power struggles and ungovernability due to the competition between different justice systems.
