Resumen
NOSETTO, Luciano. We, the Solicitors of the People: Judicialization of Politics and Democratic Representation in XXIst. century’s Argentina. Estud. filos. práct. hist. ideas [online]. 2018, vol.20, n.1, pp.1-24. ISSN 1851-9490.
The judicialization of Argentine politics opens a gap between the activism in political matters developed by the judges and the legitimacy traditionally attributed to the judiciary, as the power in charge of the conservation of the constitution. Recent efforts to supersede this deficit in terms of legitimacy pointed to participatory processes, inspired by the model of deliberative democracy. In this sense, the Argentine supreme court has developed a series of institutional innovations, such as the admission of amici curiae and the holding of public hearings. The evaluation of these experiences allows nonetheless to identify an underlying conception of citizen participation focused on the intervention of specialists and the intermediation of lawyers and legal scholars.
