          Abstract

          Este trabajo analiza la perspectiva del teórico alemán del derecho y la política Carl Schmitt (1888-1985) sobre uno de los temas fundamentales de la filosofía política durante el siglo veinte, la democracia y su fundamento. El poder constituyente es el fundamento de la democracia y su sustancia depende de la respuesta que se dé a la pregunta: ¿Cuál es el sujeto del poder constituyente? Pregunta que sigue siendo válida en un mundo globalizado donde están surgiendo nuevos sujetos sociales; es en este mundo donde las ideas de Schmitt muestran su actualidad y capacidad explicativa. Precisamente, la teoría de Carl Schmitt sobre el poder constituyente permite interrogarse rigurosamente, entre otros temas, sobre el estatus que da validez y determina los límites de las formas de democracia vigente en el espacio nacional, así como de aquellas que están comenzando a configurarse en el "nuevo orden global".

          Translated abstract

          This work analyzes the perspective of the German theoretician of law and politics Carl Schmitt (1888-1985) about one of the fundamental subjects of the political philosophy during the 20th century: democracy and its foundation. Constituent power is the foundation of democracy and its substance depends on the answer given to the question: which is the subject of constituent power? This is still a valid question in a global world where new social subjects are arising. It is in this world where Schmitt's ideas prove their currency and explanatory capacity. Indeed, Carl Schmitt's theory about constituent power allows to question rigorously, among other subjects, the status that gives validity and determines the limits of the forms of effective democracy in the national space, as well as recent democratic forms which are beginning to form, in the "new global order".
