Abstract

The article analyzes a reform proposal to the Supreme Court of Justice approved by the Senate. To do this, it reviews the main attempts to modify the integration of the Court in the history of our country. The criterion used to carry out this analysis is that the reforms were successful. That is, that the composition of the Court was effectively altered. With this scenario in mind, the work describes and criticizes the arguments that were used to approve the aforementioned project in the National Senate. Finally, the text concludes that these arguments are strategic, rather than institutional with a view to the better functioning of the Court.
