VILLALOBOS-RUMINOTT, SERGIO. Towards a Savage Institutionalism. Universum [online]. 2020, vol.35, n.1, pp.198-228. ISSN 0718-2376.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4067/S0718-23762020000100198.

This work interrogates the destituent condition of the Chilean revolts and their "paradoxical" call for a new Constitution, in relation to the general crisis of contemporary neoliberal governability, and, in relations to the exhaustion of the juristocratic model that has limited Chilean democracy since the instauration of the 1980 Constitution. The article proposes the necessity of a savage institutionalism based on a prosthetic and supplementary conception of the law and the institutions, oriented towards a radical historicity of the being-in-common able to desecrate the sovereign fiction and to deactivate the fetishist narrative about the exemplary Chilean transition to democracy. Finally, the article problematizes the emergence of a new Constitutionalism in the country, namely a spiritual one, and disputes with it the reference to the "people".

Palabras clave : Savage Institutionalism; Juristocracy; Spiritual Constitutionalism; Duopolic Formation; Late Criollism.
