Abstract

The essay proposes a reading of constitutional populism which departs from the widespread opinion whereby populists’ constitutional reforms are mainly aimed at tampering judicial power and strengthening the executive. On the contrary, it argues that the judiciary can be actually involved in the task to carry out the populist battle. A theoretical explanation for such empirical conclusion will be presented.
