Abstract

This article critically analyzes the promotion of democracy through the eyes of international law, based on the inter-American mechanism of the so-called "democratic clause", focusing on its action both in the face of the "classic" breakdown of democracy (military coup) and the new crises generated by the use of political judgment to interrupt mandates of presidents deemed unpopular.
