RESTREPO TAMAYO, John Fernando. Constitutional Courts: Dynamizers in the Construction of Contemporany Democracy for John Rawls. Cuest. Const. [online]. 2009, n.21, pp.233-249. ISSN 1405-9193.
The following text has the intention to show how John Rawls responds to a debate of the political philosophy and the contemporary constitutional right regarding to the promotion of constitutional courts with judicial review in the political and legal scene of hard societies that suffered estructural changes after World War II. The debate is because some people consider that the constitutional courts are a facade of democracy. A real obstacle of the construction of the popular public power. For other people, they represent the deserved place of balance to main lain the power that show dangerously either the executive or the legislature. ¿In wha tplace of the pendulum is John Rawls? This text seeks to answer that question.
