Ortiz Ramón S. Castillo Legislación Reforma Política This article reconsiders two legislative projects of presidents Roberto Ortiz and Ramón Castillo about political parties’ organization and electoral reform in late 1930s and early 1940s. We claim that these bills –the most important political initiatives of both presidents– responded to a series of recurrent institutional problems in the public debate after 1912-1916’ democratization. The article also seeks to reexamine traditional historiographical interpretations about both presidents and it also pursues to reevaluate them through new contributions of Political History.

Therefore, they were linked to the legal corpus created two decades before by President Roque Sáenz Peña. Este artículo busca reconsiderar dos proyectos legislativos de los presidentes Roberto Ortiz y Ramón Castillo sobre la organización de los partidos políticos y la reforma electoral a fines de los años treinta e inicios de los cuarenta. Estimamos que los proyectos de ley analizados –las iniciativas políticas más importantes de ambos presidentes–, buscaron dar respuesta a una serie de problemas institucionales recurrentes en el debate público luego de la democratización de 1912-1916. El artículo busca así complejizar la interpretación historiográfica que tradicionalmente primó sobre ambos presidentes y revaluar su acción a la luz de nuevos aportes. Particularmente procuramos analizar cómo estos dos proyectos de reforma política –si bien no llegaron a ser discutidos ni sancionados– estuvieron orientados a dar solución a problemas de prácticas políticas y partidarias, pero dentro del corpus legal creado dos décadas antes por el presidente Roque Sáenz Peña.
