Keywords:
Democracy. Relevance of Institutions. Institutional Partnerships. Social Control. Active Citizenship.Abstract
The Democratic Rule of Law presupposes a Constitution that guarantees fundamental rights and freedoms and sets limits to the exercise of power; strong institutions capable of guaranteeing the normative effectiveness of the Constitution; and an active citizenship. In this sense, this article aims to demonstrate how inter-institutional partnerships, as well as among institutions and society, as they promote institutional strengthening, constitute a mechanism that can decisively contribute to safeguarding the democratic system of government.
