| Sumario: | The Supreme Court of Argentina, particularly with its new membership, is undergoing a process aimed at creating a different institutional identity and at tailoring a renewed scheme of constitutional jurisdiction. The key elements of the analysis of this process are focussed on the Argentine legal framework subsequent to the 1994 constitutional reform; the constitutional state de iure, strictly binded to neoconstitucionalism; the rol that a judge plays in such a model; the more complex jurisdictional function; and some recent cases of this Court that decided meaningful aspects of constitutional review or where it took certain firm institutional stances.The author answers the question asked in this essay´s title analyzing the mix of elements and influences that typify the current and future Argentine constitutional and legal situation; the greater interaction between constitutional law, constitutional procedural law and international human rights law; and the legal and political challenges that the Supreme Court faces in the pursuit of a relocation in the Argentine institutional system. |
