In this article, we present an update of the investigation performed in 2010, where the goal was to describe the protection that Colombian Constitutional Court gives to the freedom rights and personal safety in the middle of the Colombian irregular warfare that Colombia lives. As result of the investigation, we found out that the affectation of these rights was product of the armed confrontation politics against the guerrilla called Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia (FARC) performed by the former president Alvaro Uribe Velez (PSD). At this moment, we are interested in confronting the quantitative and qualitative results of the investigation produced with the change of government happened in 2011, insomuch as the new government brought the substitution of the Democratic Security politics by a Peace Negotiation politics with the FARC.
