| Sumario: | In the analysis of the application of the Saenz Peña Act, during the second decade of the 20th century in Argentina, it is pertinent to address two aspects that are of special importance from the point of view of democratic expansion: a) the legal and historical context of the bicameral system, with the Senate as the axis of reluctance to the policies proposed by the transition; and b) the modifications conducted to the electoral system applicable to the desig-nation of national deputies. A congenital limitation of the reform is observed this way, which part not only of the Constitutional scheme - which defines thecomposition of the Senate - but also in the narrowness of the new system in its configuration of the pluralistic democracy. In this sense, the slogan to give rise to “third parties”, i.e., to parliamentary alternatives by outside the conservatismand of the radicalism, will be restricted not only in the terms of the project of Indalecio Gomez, but also actually institutional praxis that will happen with the assumption of Yrigoyen like president. |
