En nombre de la Constitución. El legado federalista dos siglos después
El artículo analiza el legado del pensamiento federalista en la Constitución de Estados Unidos de 1787. Tras la independencia, el debate entre federalistas y antifederalistas giró en torno a cómo estructurar el nuevo Estado para evitar la anarquía y la tiranía de las mayorías, evidenciada en conflictos como la Rebelión de Shays. Impulsada por James Madison, la principal contribución federalista fue el sistema de “frenos y contrapesos”. Este mecan…
Constitutionalism vs. democracy
The tense relationship between constitutionalism and democracy has been a frequent topic of discussion among academics and politicians. In this Article, I present and critically discuss four different, contemporary approaches to this conflictive relationship between constitutionalism and democracy. I shall call these four different responses: (i) against democracy; (ii) for constitutionalism (or “for constitutional restoration”); (iii) against co…

Independencia judicial, medios constitucionales y motivaciones personales. Una nota
El trabajo busca reflexionar sobre la posibilidad de repensar la organización del Poder Judicial. En particular, en el escrito se llama la atención sobre la necesidad de motivar a los jueces para que decidan imparcialmente y no solo brindarle los medios constitucionales para que lo hagan. En el texto se sugieren algunos caminos posibles para lograr dicho objetivo
Sobre el análisis de la «igualdad». El concepto de igualdad y el «momento feliz» de la transición española. Comentario a Alfonso Ruiz Miguel, Cuestiones de principios

Constituent power in a “community of equals”
In this article, I use an ideal example related to what I call “a community of equals” to explore the difficult problems involved in the idea of constituent power. After presenting my version of this “egalitarian community,” I discuss some theoretical controversies that have emerged around the same matter, focusing on the work of Bruce Ackerman, Joel Colón-Ríos, Yaniv Roznai, and more particularly, Andrew Arato. I argue that discussions about con…
Democracy's Demands
In a classic article published in 1992, Thomas Franck wrote of an “ emerging right to democratic governance ” in international law. In his view, such a right implied that the acceptance of a government by other states in the international arena depended on whether the government ruled with the consent of its own people. In a later piece , published in 2000, Franck elaborated, stating that [w]hile democracy has long been a right of people in some …
Courts and Social Transformation in New Democracies
Using case studies drawn from Latin America, Africa, India and Eastern Europe, this volume examines the role of courts as a channel for social transformation for excluded sectors of society in contemporary democracies. With a focus on social rights litigation in post-authoritarian regimes or in the context of fragile state control, the authors assess the role of judicial processes in altering (or perpetuating) social and economic inequalities and…

Democracy and Rights in Gelman v. Uruguay
On 24 February 2011, the Inter-American Court of Human Rights (IACtHR) issued its decision in Gelman v. Uruguay, condemning Uruguay for the forced disappearance of María Claudia García Iruretagoyena de Gelman and the kidnapping of her daughter Macarena Gelman during the military dictatorship. In the decision, the Court ordered Uruguay to remove all obstacles that enabled those responsible for the crimes to go unpunished. Accordingly, it declared …

Democracia deliberativa y judicialización de los derechos sociales
Este trabajo explora qué implica defender un concepto deliberativo de la democracia respecto a la aplicación judicial de los derechos sociales. Aquí se analizan críticamente y, en primer lugar, las dos ideas de democracia que suelen fundamentar las decisiones de los jueces en materia de derechos sociales: la visión pluralista y la “rousseauniana”. Luego de mostrar los problemas propios de ambos enfoques, esta reflexión se pregunta sobre los signi…
El carácter igualitario del republicanismo
En este escrito me propongo examinar la filosofía política republicana como una concepción en diálogo con el liberalismo. Según intentaré mostrar -a través del recurso a ejemplos históricos provenientes de los orígenes del constitucionalismo- ambas filosofías se encuentran unidas por sus comunes aspiraciones igualitarias, pero al mismo tiempo muestran entendimientos diferentes acerca del significado y los alcances de la idea de igualdad. El repub…
Latin American Constitutionalism, 1810-60
This paper presents a typology of different constitutional conceptions, which are designed to help us classify the constitutional conceptions and debates that appeared in Latin America during the nineteenth century and to compare the opposing ideas that were present at the time. Three broad categories of constitutional projects are defined: (1) conservative models, characterized by the defense of political elitism and moral perfectionism; (2) maj…

In search of a democratic justice – what courts should not do
This study examines why, after so many years of economically costly judicial reforms in La1in America, the judicial system in most of the region is s1i11 working so poorly. The study assesses that part of the problem stems from a wrong theoretical analysis. Academics and leading reformers alike have placed too much emphasis on the politically dependent character of many Latin American judges, or the lack of basic resources both among judges and t…

Full Representation, Deliberation, and Impartiality
How should we organize political systems in order to obtain impartial decisions? In the United States, I will assume, the Founding Fathers gave an answer to this question that was both normatively interesting and politically very appealing. According to them, impartial decisions required careful deliberation among representatives of the whole society. In brief, their "formula" for securing impartiality was "full representation plus deliberation."…
