A Teoria da Constituição como Teoria Crítica: Marcelo Cattoni, democracia sem espera e constitucionalismo por vir

Abstract

This paper approaches the theoretical work of Marcelo Cattoni, mainly his thesis about a critical theory of Constitution. To do so, first it reconstructs the Marcelo Cattoni's theoretical-bibliographic trajectory before his book "Contributions to a Critical Theory of Constitution". Next, it presents the structure and the main arguments of that book. Finally, it raises some critical issues that could maybe contribute to the relevant dialogues that Marcelo Cattoni has been proposing between Constitutional Theory and Critical Theory in Brazil.
