Este estudio investiga el alcance del papel de la jurisdiccion constitucional relativa a las reformas, mediante el analisis de algunos casos representativos. Se centra en las decisiones tomadas en los ordenamientos seleccionados, donde los Tribunales Constitucionales —o Supremos, en su caso— han reivindicado la funcion de supervisores de la efectividad de los limites, frente a posibles excesos de los actores politicos. Para demostrar que el control de las reformas es un corolario imprescindible de la supremacia constitucional, estos organos jurisdiccionales han empleado los diferentes argumentos que se analizan en el texto. This essay deals with the implications of the judicial review related to Constitutional amendments, through the selection of some representative cases. It focuses on the case-law of the legal systems chosen where Constitutional or Supreme Courts asserted being enabled to verify the effectiveness of limits against possible misuses by political actors. Those Courts used different arguments to demonstrate that the control of amendments is an unavoidable consecuence of the Constitutional supremacy and all of them are analyzed in the text.
