It can be said that something is done when it has already been completed or is constituted.
The concept of fact , a term derived from the Latin factus , allows us to refer to what happens : the actions , the work or the issue to which reference is made. To give some examples of use: “Eight people were arrested as a result of the criminal act in the bank” , “I don't care about that, the fact is that you are lying again” , “There was an event that changed the life of the famous athlete” , “It was not such an important event.”
It should be noted that fact also refers to what is mature, concluded, formed , finished or constituted: “With a compensation of that caliber, I am already done” , “In this city there are many badly done people” , “I am proud of affirm that my father is a well-made man, despite what certain malicious rumors say."
Types of fact
Likewise, a scientific fact is, according to logical empiricism, an observation that can be verified and considered objective. These facts, therefore, can be identified with the observations. A journalistic fact , on the other hand, is a situation that, due to its characteristics, has social relevance and deserves to be disseminated in a mass media .
A legal fact , on the other hand, is a transcendent event in the field of law . Every legal norm is born after presupposing a certain fact in order to regulate the effects that it has in the field of law. This presupposition that drives legal norms constitutes, therefore, the legal fact.
Comparisons and religion
The notion allows, on the other hand, to make comparisons motivated by similarities or similarities : “You are made into a tiger!” , “You don't know how my boyfriend felt when he discovered me: he was a total beast” , “With dirty clothes and that hair, you look like a total beast” .
The fifth book of the New Testament is also known as Acts or Acts of the Apostles . The authorship of this Bible text is attributed to Luke.
A coup d'état can give rise to a de facto government.
De facto governments
A government that is not expressly constitutionally based, that arises from a rupture such as a coup d'état or a revolution , without responding to the legal system, is called de facto. It must be obeyed by the inhabitants of a country, regardless of their ideals or their will, since it is imposed through threats and violence. It is classified into two types:
General : that controls the state territory in its entirety;
Local : although it aims at the same level of dominance as the first, due to the opposition of certain groups, it achieves partial influence. In this case, a de jure government and a de facto government take place simultaneously, with the constant struggle that this entails.
Since a de facto government appears after an extralegal event, the legal system that existed before its emergence experiences a necessary rupture , whether total or partial. The first case is common when a revolution occurs, since those who achieve victory aspire to fundamentally modify the political, economic and social bases. The second, for example, usually takes place after a coup d'état and most of the regulations are still in force.
Formalization of these governments
One of the most striking characteristics of this type of government is that the creation of legal norms does not follow the traditionally established steps, given the imposed and forced nature of the mandate, which has absolute and unquestionable power . However, these rules are not always radically different from the previous ones, except when there has been a revolution.
A government in fact assumes the Constituent Power and the Constituted Powers (the Executive, the Legislative and the Judicial). Although it is common to delegate the administration of the latter to other bodies for technical reasons, you can resume them whenever you wish.
