It argues that populists have not rejected constitutionalism as a project but a negative version of it. In its place, they incorporated their vision of a government unrestricted by individual rights and entered the private sphere with their doctrines. The lesson from the victories of populism is therefore to move toward positive constitutionalism that ensures the well-being of all. Drawing on the concept of relational autonomy, the article explains what this shift consists of in the areas of reproductive rights and gender-based violence. The conclusions outline a shift in the operation of the basic principles of constitutionalism, focusing on the relational nature of rights understood not only as shields, but also as claims to positive state action. – Reproduced https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/09646639231167815 Social and Legal Studies POPULISM AR 0 0 ddc 0 0 399796 IIPA IIPA 2024-01-16 32(6), Dec, 2023: p.893-910 AR130556 2024-01-16 AR
