GALLO, Adriana. La reforma política en debate: Análisis de las últimas reformas político-electorales (discutidas y/o celebradas) en la Argentina. Doc. aportes adm. pública gest. estatal [online]. 2017, n.28, pp.155-185. ISSN 1851-3727.

This research will analyze the last two political-electoral reforms carried out and/or under discussion in Argentina: the first, promoted by the Kirchnerist government, sanctioned in 2009, and the second, promoted by the Macrist government, debated throughout 2016 and still under legislative treatment. In this paper, we propose a critical reading of both Political Reform projects, first setting forth the assessment that preceded each one, then reviewing the arguments that have supported each proposal. Subsequently, we will analyze in detail the content of both reforms, pointing out the concrete effects of the clauses (real in the first case and possible in the second), theoretically outlined or incorporated with each one. Thus, through the evaluation of the three elections celebrated since the enactment of the first law, we will consider that the objectives set forth with its enactment were not achieved. But, at the same time, there is no evidence -based on recent international experience- that the proposals included in the new project will lead to this purpose.

Keywords : Kirchnerist reform; Macrist reformist proposal; Democratization; Representativeness.
