RODRIGUES, JOÃO GASPAR. Normative force, specular theory, and constitutional imperative. Rev. Derecho [online]. 2024, n.61, pp.1-.  Epub 02-Jun-2024. ISSN 0121-8697.  https://doi.org/10.14482/dere.61.001.495.

The essay weaves a revisionist analysis on the conceptual and structural relationship between three fundamental properties of modern constitutionalism: normative force, postulate of updating (reflected in a specular theory), and collective belief in the constitutional imperative. Throughout the pages, as far as possible, we try to explain the relational character of the conceptual representations presented, so that the knowledge under analysis is capable of interfering in reality or, at the very least, understanding it better, purifying some classic ideas.

Palavras-chave : Constitution; Constitutional supremacy; Normative force; Specular theory; Constitutional imperative.
