BERNAL PULIDO, Carlos. La democracia como principio constitucional en América Latina. Cuest. Const. [online]. 2007, n.17, pp.31-51. ISSN 1405-9193.
Democracy, pillar of Latin American countries and cornerstone of their Constitutions, is in risk because of presi dencialism, constitutionality and Welfare Sate. This one is the aspect that most concern the author because, even though Democracy Constitution establishes equality, justice and social rights in general, their effective proleclion is beyond by current changes, international economy and pace of globalization. As a solution to this problem, Constitutional Tribunal has played an essential role supporting social rights without concern of the State Structure or the economic plan.
