ESPINO TAPIA, Diana Rocío. Social rights and justiciability in the constitutional theory of the XXI Century. Cuest. Const. [online]. 2017, n.36, pp.79-108. ISSN 1405-9193.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iij.24484881e.2017.36.10860.

This article aims to incorporate a proposal of an “evolved” understanding of social rights from the postulates of neoconstitutional paradigm, current in our times. This will be done through the analysis of the arguments against the justiciability of social rights put forward from the positivist paradigm, whose strength will be tested against theoretical arguments of the neoconstitutional paradigm. We conclude that facing this change of paradigm, the positivist arguments have remained obsolete, generating the necessity of a change of perspective in the theory of the social rights.
