Luigi Ferrajoli’s essay Constitucionalismo principialista y constitucionalismo garantista represents a much-need theoretical and conceptual clarification of so-called neo-constitutionalism. In turn, in my contribution to the debate I will try to develop some reflections on three points of disagreement with Ferrajoli: his theoretical assessment of the distinction between rules and principles, his interpretation of the «balancing» technique, and his views on the relation between law and morality. Also, I will offer a reconstruction of the meaning of «neo-constitutionalism», and will try to locate Ferrajoli’s theoretical stance within it.

Abstract
Luigi Ferrajoli’s essay Constitucionalismo principialista y constitucionalismo garantista represents a much-need theoretical and conceptual clarification of so-called neo-constitutionalism. In turn, in my contribution to the debate I will try to develop some reflections on three points of disagreement with Ferrajoli: his theoretical assessment of the distinction between rules and principles, his interpretation of the «balancing» technique, and his views on the relation between law and morality. Also, I will offer a reconstruction of the meaning of «neo-constitutionalism», and will try to locate Ferrajoli’s theoretical stance within it.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
