I will show that an in-depth analysis of these alternatives uncovers serious weaknesses in the usual models of justification for constitutionalism. The theoretical basis to describe the relationship between democracy and constitutionalism has remained stuck in a trap that I seek to break from. I conclude by showing the need to overcome epistemic and counter-epistemic arguments by proposing.
