¿Quién es el pueblo? Una discusión normativa entorno a dos enfoques opuestos de la idea del pueblo.

Who are the people? The question entails two main competing approaches, namely a liberal and a populist one. This paper provides a normative discussion of the rationales behind both approaches; however, a liberal position is defended over the populist one because of the effects that populism tends to have on constitutional norms of a democracy, i.e., separation of powers, checks and balances, and the rule of law.
