We share the article by Fabián Medizza, Associate at Kepler-Karst Law Firm and expert in Constitutional Law, published in La Ley, where he explores the complex issue of who holds authority over pensions and retirement systems in Argentina: the national government or the provincial governments?
As a federal country established by the will of its provinces—who retain all powers not expressly delegated—Argentina allows these provinces to manage their own social security systems, such as pension funds. This has sparked significant debates throughout history, which the author examines through a thorough analysis of jurisprudential developments.
The article also delves into how the 1994 constitutional reform introduced a clause that further complicates the clear delineation of responsibilities in this area.
