Derechos, principios y objetivos en los Estatutos de Autonomía reformados

Abstract

The article analyses the rights, principles and objectives embodied in the Statutes of Autonomy in the recent statuary reforms. It starts from the idea that statutory rights are not only legitimate from a constitutional standpoint but they suppose a positive contribution to build an autonomous constitutional space. It discusses the idea that the statutory rights and the greater constitutional density of the Statutes could suppose a higher stability of the Autonomous statehood. On the contrary, it rejects the usual identification between Constitutional Law and State and it promotes a view of the Constitutional Law integrated into a supranational and territorial context in line with its historical function: the control of political power whether or not state. All without prejudice to recognize the centrality of the State as in what it concerns to the legislative structure of the fundamental rights. Then it analyzes the rights, principles and statutory objectives taking into account their regulatory efficiency and the existing constitutional jurisprudence.
