The term “neoconstitucionalism” is quite ambiguous: contemporary culture uses it to denote such as heterogeneous things as a form of state, a policy of judicial activism, a theoretical account of contemporary legal systems, a kind of legal methodology, and ideological adherence to the law. This paper focuses on the aspects related to judicial policy, legal theory and legal methodology, by emphasizing two possible perspectives. The first one called negative, that delineates such a prismatic conception of law as a set of oppositions to the theses defended by predominant legal theories. The second one is dubbed positive, since it claims to having identified a whole series of “new discoveries” about contemporary legal systems. The positive version is characterized by eight points: (1) the law of constitutional state is a combination of rules and principles, (2) rules and principles are liable to bring about a systematic set of norms, (3) contemporary constitutions incorporate moral values, so that they have created a relevant connection between law and morality, (4) the incorporation of moral values in the constitution means that the interpreters must construe the constitutional provisions by a moral reading, (5) any legal norm is defeasable, (6) some legal standards require balancing, as opposed to traditional subsuntive reasoning, (7) by holistically interpreting legal provisions, judges can decide any dispute whatsoever, (8) legal norms cannot have any content, since their content is eventually determined by moral judgments. The paper winds up illustrating some of the achievements and the shortcomings of each kind of neoconstitutionalism.

Este trabajo se centra en los aspectos de política jurisprudencial, de teoría del derecho y de metodología jurídica, enfatizando dos posibles perspectivas del neoconstitucionalismo: una negativa que delinea dicha multifacética concepción del derecho como un conjunto de oposiciones a las tesis defendidas por las concepciones dominantes, y otra positiva que pretende haber identificado una serie de “nuevos descubrimientos” en los sistemas jurídicos contemporáneos. En esta versión positiva se examinan ocho tesis: (1) el derecho de los estados constitucionales es una combinación de reglas y principios, (2) reglas y principios son aptos para constituir un conjunto sistematico de normas, (3) las constituciones contemporáneas incorporan valores morales, de manera que habrían creado una conexión relevante entre derecho y moral, (4) tal incorporación implica un deber de interpretar las disposiciones constitucionales mediante una lectura moral, (5) toda norma jurídica es derrotable, (6) algunos estándares jurídicos requieren de un razonamiento ponderativo o de balance, opuesto al tradicional razonamiento subsutivo, (7) interpretando holísticamente las disposiciones jurídicas, los jueces pueden llegar a decidir cualquier controversia, y, (8) las normas jurídicas no pueden tener cualquier contenido, porque su contenido es determinado en última instancia por juicios morales. El trabajo termina ilustrando aciertos y equivocaciones de cada versión del neoconstitucionalismo.2014text (article)application/pdfhttps://dialnet.unirioja.es/servlet/oaiart?codigo=5191048(Revista) ISSN 1390-7794(Revista) ISSN 1390-440XIus Humani: Revista de Derecho, ISSN 1390-440X, Nº. 4, 2014, pags. 227-261spaLICENCIA DE USO: Los documentos a texto completo incluidos en Dialnet son de acceso libre y propiedad de sus autores y/o editores.
