The juridical and political principle of division of power and constitutional autonomous organisms

Abstract

In every Constitution, the existence of the principle of division of power implies its dissection in three functions that characterize the modern state, namely: legislative, executive and judicial. Nevertheless, the proliferation of constitutional autonomous organisms in our country raises the possibility of a crisis among these and the former. It is a challenge of modern constitutionalism to harmonize the attributions bestowed upon the constitutional branches with those vested in autonomous bodies.
