MOCOROA, Juan M.. The Argentine Presidential System as a Resilient System. Cuest. Const. [online]. 2019, n.41, pp.129-150.  Epub 22-Abr-2020. ISSN 1405-9193.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iij.24484881e.2019.41.13943.

The Argentine constitutional reform tried to attenuate the presidential system. Al-most twenty-five years after that modification, it is possible to question whether that objective was reached. That is, if it was fulfilled within the framework of our constitutional practice. The diagnoses made are, in general, negative. In this paper I will try to show that Argentine presidentialism is a paradoxical case of a resilient system. In the face of any attempt at mitigation, it is endowed with greater legitimacy credentials or greater formal competencies in the constitutional text; or the attempts are only vacuous. From that, we try to reconstruct this situation conceptually.

Palabras llave : Presidentialism; political system; stability; democracy; resilience.
