Presentation and discussion of the research study The judiciary as a new political actor in Latin America by Elena Martínez Barahona, Assistant Lecturer and Ph.D. in the area of Political Science and researcher at the Inter-university Institute of Ibero-American Studies at the University of Salamanca. The aim of the work is to analyse the different forms that the phenomenon of the "judicialisation of politics" is taking in the Latin American context, where judges are increasingly becoming situated at the centre of the political panorama, thereby causing democratic legitimacy to be relocated, to a certain extent, from the political system to the judicial system.
