Abstract

Este artículo analiza el concepto de ?presidencia imperial? en el derecho constitucional de los Estados Unidos de América desde una perspectiva histórico-institucional. Este análisis se plantea, primero, desde los fundamentos jus-filosóficos del constitucionalismo norteamericano y, segundo, desde el devenir del gobierno presidencial. La bipartición responde la pregunta sobre los límites, institucionales y reales tiene la Presidencia. Se observa que estos no son suficientes, pues las órdenes ejecutivas promueven el protagonismo del Presidente, permitiendo a aquel país transformarse en una gran potencia. Se concluye que la ?presidencia imperial? se opone a la república moderada de los Padres Fundadores; la desestructuración de los límites al poder ejecutivo siempre se ajusta a los hechos y avatares del poder político.

Alternate abstract:

This article analyzes ?Imperial Presidency? in US Constitutional Law from a historical and institutional perspective. This is firstly made from a philosophical foundation of American constitutionalism and secondly from an evolution of the Presidential government. These two parts try to answer the question about the limits of the Federal presidency. It should be noted that these are not enough, because the executive orders promote the President's role, allowing the US to become a powerful country. The conclusion of this work that the ?imperial presidency? is opposed to the moderate republic of the Founding Fathers; the blur limits of the executive department always adjust to the political power facts and situations.
