El garantismo como constitucionalismo de reglas. (Apuntes sobre las normas en Principia iuris) || Garantism as Constitutionalism Based on Rules. (Notes on Legal Norms in Principia Iuris)

Abstract

Resumen: Luigi Ferrajoli ha sido catalogado a menudo de neoconstitucionalista no obstante defender algunas tesis que dificultan encuadrarle en dicha corriente. Ello puede verse de forma clara en su concepto de norma. En este trabajo intentaré mostrar en qué sentido Ferrajoli se aleja del neoconstitucionalismo basado en principios para, posteriormente, incidir en la importancia de reglas en el marco general de Principia Iuris.

Abstract: Luigi Ferrajoli is commonly known as a neoconstitucionalista. However, he has always defended some theses that make it difficult to confirm that assertion. This fact can be observed in his concept of norm. In this paper I intend to show in what sense Ferrajoli tends to separate his garantismo from principle based neoconstitutionalismo in order to, finally, stress the importance of rules in the general frame of Principia iuris.
