Abstract:
The constitutional State is the highest instance known for the political organization of the community of free individuals. The dimensions of equality, with different signification and degree of recognition aim to cover a certain grounding on the State, when they equate by convention aspects of the relationships between human beings. The equality before the law means one of its strengthenings. One new achievement: equality of opportunity. Both are insufficient because they do not prevent the regressive march of well-being. The growing inequality in Argentina, were almost 60% of its population is poor or vulnerable, shows the existence of two worlds: a political citizenship and a social citizenship. The deprived, poor and vulnerable people do not enjoy -nor could they- the current state of constitutional affairs, a citizenship filled with social justice. It will never be possible to completely destroy social inequality; it can be continuously reduced.
A progress with social justice constitutes a fundamental aim of the State. Decreasing the dualism in the degrees of citizenship is fostered with enthusiasm. It can come from a basic consensus, in a new auditorium ruled by the federal Constitution in its variation process. As long as a more equal distribution of natural or manufactured goods does not take place, the language of secular scripts would be better understood by those who know the benefits of complete citizenship and know all of its enlightenment.
