"El Juez Constitucional, sea que se trate de un Tribunal Constitucional especializado o de la Sala Constitucional de la Corte Suprema de un país, tiene como misión esencial el garantizar la vigencia de la Constitución, y con ello, la vigencia del Estado democrático de derecho; asegurar el derecho del pueblo a ser gobernado por sus representantes electos mediante sufragio; preservar el funcionamiento del Estado bajo el principio de la separación de poderes, y velar porque todos los órganos del Estado acaten la Constitución. Bajo ese ángulo, por tanto, es inconcebible que un Juez Constitucional pueda tener como misión la de demoler el Estado de derecho y, con ello, destruir las bases del sistema democrático representativo y participativo. Sin embargo, eso fue precisamente lo que ocurrió en Venezuela a partir de 1999, y durante los últimos 20 años (1999-2018), cuando el Juez Constitucional se convirtió en el más importante y perverso instrumento utilizado por el régimen autoritario que asaltó el poder en 1999, mal utilizando métodos democráticos, para demoler los principios de la democracia. Este libro del profesor Allan R. Brewer-Carías analiza ese proceso, de cómo, siguiendo las propuestas formuladas bajo el mote de un “nuevo constitucionalismo” que un grupo de profesores españoles lograron introducir en América Latina de la mano de Presidentes autoritarios, primero en Venezuela, con Hugo Chávez, y luego en Ecuador y Bolivia, con Rafael Correa y Evo Morales; se fueron demoliendo progresivamente los principios de la democracia representativa bajo el espejismo de sustituirla por una falaz “democracia participativa,” cuyos principios, aparte de quedar algunos plasmados en el texto de las Constituciones, no llegaron a implementarse, y resultaron ser una gran mentira. Todo ese proceso destructivo se basó en la propuesta inicial de la convocatoria de Asambleas Constituyente “populares” no reguladas ni previstas en los textos constitucionales, las cuales abrieron la puerta para que las Constituciones perdieran todo principio de rigidez y supremacía. El resultado –y es el caso de Venezuela que se estudia en este libro– fue un catastrófico desmantelamiento de los principios democráticos y de la separación de poderes, lamentablemente ejecutado desde dentro del propio Estado, utilizándose para ello al propio Juez Constitucional, el cual, como instrumento malévolo, fue dictando sentencias tras sentencias, “a la carta” o a la medida, tal como le fue requerido por el Poder Ejecutivo conforme avanzaba la entronización del régimen autoritario. El objeto central de este libro es el estudio de todas esas sentencias".

Ross, Alf. On Law and Justice. Berkeley: University of California Press, 1959. xi, 383 pp. Reprint available December 2004 by the Lawbook Exchange, Ltd. ISBN 1-58477-488-6. Cloth. $90. * In this influential and oft-cited study Ross discounted the theories of natural law, positivism and legal realism. In their stead, he proposed the abandonment of "ought-propositions" for the "is-propositions" employed by other empirical sciences, thereby envisioning lawyers that serve merely as "rational technologists." Less bound by tradition, and traditional notions of justice, jurisprudence then becomes "not only a beautiful mental activity per se, but also an instrument which may benefit any lawyer who wants to understand what he is doing and why" (Preface).

In Russia, as the confrontation over the constitutional distribution of authority raged, Boris Yeltsin's economic program regularly wended its way in and out of the Constitutional Court until Yeltsin finally suspended that court in the aftermath of his clash with the hard-line parliament. In Europe, French and German legislators and executives now routinely alter desired policies in response to or in anticipation of the pronouncements of constitutional courts. In Latin America and Africa, courts are--or will be-- important participants in ongoing efforts to establish constitutional rules and policies protect new or fragile democracies from the threats of military intervention, ethnic conflict, and revolution. This global expansion of judicial power, or judicialization of politics is accompanied by an increasing domination of negotiating or decision making arenas by quasi- judicial procedures. For better or for worse, the judicialization of politics has become one of the most significant trends of the end of the millenium. In this book, political scientists, legal scholars, and judges around the world trace the intellectual origins of this trend, describe its occurence--or lack of occurence--in specific nations, analyze the circumstances and conditions that promote or retard judicialization, and evaluate the phenomenon from a variety of intellectual and ideological perspectives.

"All over the world, in all democratic States, independently of having a legal system based on the common law or on the civil law principles, the courts – special constitutional courts, supreme courts or ordinary courts – have the power to decide and declare the unconstitutionality of legislation or of other State acts when a particular statute violates the text of the Constitution or of its constitutional principles. This power of the courts is the consequence of the consolidation in contem-porary constitutionalism of three fundamental principles of law: first, the existence of a written or unwritten constitution or of a fundamental law, conceived as a superior law with clear supremacy over all other statutes; second, the “rigid” character of such constitution or fundamental law, which implies that the amendments or reforms that may be introduced can only be put into practice by means of a particular and special constituent or legislative process, preventing the ordinary legislator from doing so; and third, the establishment in that same written or unwritten and rigid constitution or fundamental law, of the judicial means for guaranteeing its supremacy, over all other state acts, including legislative acts. Accordingly, in democratic systems subjected to such principles, the courts have the power to refuse to enforce a statute when deemed to be contrary to the Constitu-tion, considering it null or void, through what is known as the diffuse system of judicial review; and in many cases, they even have the power to annul the said unconstitutional law, through what is known as the concentrated system of judicial review. The former, is the system created more than two hundred years ago by the Supreme Court of the United States, and that so deeply characterizes the North American Constitutional system. The latter system, has been adopted in consti-tutional systems in which the judicial power of judicial review has been generally assigned to the Supreme Court or to one special Constitutional Court, as is the case, for example, of many countries in Europe and in Latin America. This concentrated system of judicial review, although established in many Latin American countries since the 19th century, was only effectively developed particularly in the world after World War II following the studies of Hans Kelsen. Of course, during the past thirty years many changes have occurred in the world on these matters of Judicial Review, in particularly in Europe and specifically in the United Kingdom, where these Lectures were delivered. Nonetheless, I have decided to publish them hereto in its integrality, as they were: the written work of a law professor made as a consequence of his research for the preparation of his lectures, not pretending to be anything else, but the academic testimony of the state of the subject of judicial review in the world in 1985-1986".

Unlike many other countries, the United States has few constitutional guarantees of social welfare rights such as income, housing, or healthcare. In part this is because many Americans believe that the courts cannot possibly enforce such guarantees. However, recent innovations in constitutional design in other countries suggest that such rights can be judicially enforced--not by increasing the power of the courts but by decreasing it. In Weak Courts, Strong Rights, Mark Tushnet uses a comparative legal perspective to show how creating weaker forms of judicial review may actually allow for stronger social welfare rights under American constitutional law. Under "strong-form" judicial review, as in the United States, judicial interpretations of the constitution are binding on other branches of government. In contrast, "weak-form" review allows the legislature and executive to reject constitutional rulings by the judiciary--as long as they do so publicly. Tushnet describes how weak-form review works in Great Britain and Canada and discusses the extent to which legislatures can be expected to enforce constitutional norms on their own. With that background, he turns to social welfare rights, explaining the connection between the "state action" or "horizontal effect" doctrine and the enforcement of social welfare rights. Tushnet then draws together the analysis of weak-form review and that of social welfare rights, explaining how weak-form review could be used to enforce those rights. He demonstrates that there is a clear judicial path--not an insurmountable judicial hurdle--to better enforcement of constitutional social welfare rights.

Although the state's role in society has clearly expanded since the 1930s, its independent effect on social structure and change has been given little weight in modern political theories. To bring theory more into line with reality, Stepan proposes a new model of state autonomy which he shows to be particularly well suited for understanding political developments in the Iberian countries and their former Latin-American colonies.

The eleven essays in this volume, supplemented by an editorial introduction, centre around three overlapping problems. First, why would a society want to limit its own sovereign power by imposing constitutional constraints on democratic decision-making? Second, what are the contributions of democracy and constitutions to efficient government? Third, what are the relations among democracy, constitutionalism, and private property? This comprehensive discussion of the problems inherent in constitutional democracy will be of interest to students in a variety of social sciences. It illuminates particularly the current efforts of many countries, especially in Latin America, to establish stable democratic regimes.
