El artículo busca mostrar la importancia que la teoría del pouvoir neutre de B. Constant/ tuvo en la interpretación que Carl Schmitt hace de las funciones del Reichspräsident, en los años veinte hasta el nazismo. Aun cuando Schmitt critica al romanticismo, del cual al autor de Adolphe es una figura clave, igualmente reconoce que Constant teorizó la institución constitucional más adecuada para enfrentar las situaciones críticas, cuando la constitución debe autodefenderse mediante poderes legales pero excepcionales.
The article tries to show the importance that Constant's theory of the pouvoir neutre had on Carl Schmitt's interpretation of the functions of the Reichspräsident, during the twenties up to 1933. Even though Schmitt criticises Romanticism, one of its key figures is precisely Constant, the german jurist recognizes that Constant elaborated the constitutional institution which faces better than any other one those critical situations, under which any constitution must defend itself with legal but excepcional powers.
