Sumario:In Argentina, the recall only exists in some subnational regulations but not in the national Constitution. This explains the multiplicity and diversity of forms and requirements that this mechanism acquires in the different provincial, municipal and local regulations. Such a situation complicates and discourages its approach, undermining any attempt to display a comparative view, simultaneously and jointly, throughout the territory. For this reason, the study of such a citizen participation tool is usually fragmented into partial case investigations in this country, with a particular perspective isolated from the other districts. The possibility of finding similar and different elements that contribute to a better understanding is lost, not only of the design and results of the recall on a micro scale, but also of its overall performance at the macro level. Reducing that outstanding debt for Argentina is the objective of this work.
