Alternancia y reelección presidencial: rol de las Cortes Constitucionales

Abstract

The objective of the research is to analyze the alternation and re-election of the presidency in Latin America. The method used was the analytical-synthetic one, which allowed in the course of the study to analyze the relevant characteristics in relation to the participation right, as well as the principle of alternation with its consequences in re-election. It concludes by noting that the Constitutional Courts today have a primary role in the defense of democracy, especially by guaranteeing the principle of alternation. However, in some Courts this limitation was not established.
