TORTORA ARAVENA, Hugo. The limitations to the fundamental rights. Estudios constitucionales [online]. 2010, vol.8, n.2, pp.167-200. ISSN 0718-5200.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4067/S0718-52002010000200007.

In this work, the author discusses the Fundamental Rights Restrictions which are a main topic within the Dogmatics of the Fundamental Rights Firstly, a concept of those restrictions is given. Then, different classifications are analyzed, using criteria related to the circumstances under which the restrictions are applied, the origin of the restrictions, and the norm where those limitations are stated or mentioned. Regarding the requirements these restrictions must fulfill in order to be considered as legitimate, the author mentions competence, international, material, and logic conditions. Finally, it is proposed the existence of what the author calls "factual restrictions" on the fundamental rights. These restrictions are represented by illegitimate restrictions on the rights, established or tolerated by the institutionality of the state. This is especially the case of the sentences imposed by the Courts of Law which recognize these restrictions with the authority of res judicata.
