Resumen

PASCUAL, Maribel González. Constitutional Courts before Euro-Crisis Law in Portugal and Spain: a comparative prospect. e-Pública [online]. 2017, vol.4, n.1, pp.110-127. ISSN 2183-184X.

Portugal and Spain have been at the center of a major financial and economic crisis since 2009, the management of which has needed major budgetary constraints impinging upon several social rights. This lowering of social rights' enjoyment has been challenged before Constitutional Courts.  In this regard, this article aims to unravel the Spanish and Portuguese Constitutional Courts' role regarding austerity measures by critically analysing their main reasoning on this matter. To achieve such an aim, this article analyses on one hand the role that Euro-crisis Law has played in both Constitutional Courts' reasoning. On the other hand, it discusses how economic crisis has shaped the case law regarding social rights in both countries.

Palabras clave : Jurisprudence of crisis; constitutional courts; Euro-crisis Law; social rights' adjudication.
