The 2010 Dominican Constitution, the Constitutional Tribunal Sentencia 168-13 and the National Regularisation Plan 169-14

For over eighty years, the Dominican Constitution recognised the right of ‘all people born on Dominican territory’ to jus soli (birthright) citizenship (Figure 4). The two exceptions to this rule were children born to diplomats and persons ‘in transit’. From 2008, the PLD began proposing highly controversial, ultra-Conservative changes to the constitution, angering environmental, women’s and LGBTQ+ rights campaigners with sweeping reforms that ultimately extended the re-election term, prioritised private property rights, outlawed abortion under all circumstances and explicitly recognised marriage as a single union between a man and a woman.
