摘要
Constitutional protcction is spccifically guarantecd to the equality of opportunitics and results in the effectivc exercise of the rights of Nicaraguan women; there have also been approved and ratified several international agreements of human rights, even rising them to constitutional range. The national legislation prior to the Constitution of 1987 promulgated during revolutionary Government, contains contradictions and emptinesses in relation to constitutional postulares and international instruments; although some advances cannot be denied, as laws that sanction intrafamiliar and sexual violence. However, access of women to justice is limited, due to the inadequate judicial and administrative practice, which a lot of times it does not arise from legislative scarcities; rather it is due to the prejudices of people that integrate the justice administration system and of the society in general. It is common to start from formal equality, being ignorant of that the very recognition of the equality in front of the law does not eliminate inequalities, neither, therefore, discrimination. This situation only will be able to get solved if, so much the State like the individuals, accomplish personal and institutional transformations, that trend to achieve the protection based in the equality of everybody, and to overcome the obstacles that prevent the aforementioned equality to the Nicaraguan women.
