Abstract
This document assumes that the exercise of full citizenship, within a
global context, should be based on political, cultural, and economic
considerations rather than on a legal recognition. It is understood
that global citizenship, as a world vehicle, can be exercised by
individuals and identity groups such as women, in such a way that
women’s social movement can be seen as Castells’ network society.
It can be seen, however, that this exercise cannot be exercised in
full without the existence of international justice courts that can
assure rights implied in the concept of citizenship that, in the case
of the Inter-American Court, has been setting the exercise of global
citizenship from some jurisprudential standards on women’s human
rights, applicable to each State that has accepted the competence
of the Regional Court.
