THE CONSTITUTIONAL FACES OF REDISTRIBUTION: THE ECONOMIC SIDE OF THE PRINCIPLE OF SOLIDARITY

Economic interspatial and intersubjective inequalities inherent to capitalism were constitutionally faced by promulgating a social, democratic and federalizable state, which teleological orientation is aimed at obtaining a more equitable personal and territorial income distribution. In this sense, adhering to the reasoning the economic justification of the redistributive nature of some of the public earnings and expenses, this paper develops a novel legal-economic approach to the economic aspect of the constitutional principle of solidarity. Not in vane, the traditional doctrine was attached to either the constitutional clause that states the Inter-territorial Compensation Fund or to the conjunction of the latter and the legal and exira Constitution instruments that channel the financial resources.
