Abstract

The aim of this paper is to make a structural commentary on the content of a judgement issued by the Supreme Court of Justice of Argentina in March 2019, by which was judged the validity of the process of amendment to the Constitution of the province of La Rioja to achieve the re-election of its governor. We will try not only giving a general idea of the way in which the Court carries out the construction of its arguments, but also of understanding -under the light of other pronouncements of the Court itself and of academic doctrine- how, with a constant and peaceful jurisprudence, feudalism has been tried to be limited in Argentina’s federalism, thus achieving the primacy of the representative-republican principle that come from the national Constitution, deviating from regional precedents.
