OSPINA MOLINA, Pablo Sergio. The new Latin American constitutionalism, presidentialism and revocation of the mandate. Justicia [online]. 2023, vol.28, n.43, pp.227-238. Epub 16-Ene-2024. ISSN 0124-7441. https://doi.org/10.17081/just.28.43.7002.
Latin America, a continent that has gone from an anti-democratic constitutional history, which at the end of the 20th century and beginning of the 21st century, has tended to generate democratic constitutions, with Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador and Bolivia being the standard bearers of this model that maintains its bicentennial presidential tradition, has been concerned with trying to control the overflowing presidentialism (hyperpresidentialism) and consequently trying to maintain the system of checks and balances, in this article, we will review one of those mechanisms such as Direct Revocation, looking at the figure from a doctrinal point of view, being a legal investigation, reviewing the topic hand in hand with aspects proposed by the governments themselves, the legislative branch and the pronouncements of the constitutional courts, evidencing the problems that this mechanism of democratic participation shows in practice and how this affects the democratic exercise.
Palabras clave : democracy; hyperpresidentialism; new American constitutionalism; presidentialism; revocation of the mandate.
