• Resumen

  • Los estudios legislativos conforman una subdisciplina de las ciencias sociales que, mediante diferentes estrategias metodológicas y enfoques, busca describir y explicar el comportamiento parlamentario. En este artículo se describe un panorama general de los orígenes, desarrollo y debates contemporáneos sobre el estudio de la representación política y el desempeño de las legislaturas, así como de los espacios de colaboración académica que han permitido la consolidación de la investigación legislativa especializada. Se advierten algunos de los principales retos para este campo de conocimiento frente a los propios desafíos de las ciencias sociales entre los que destacan las limitaciones teóricas y metodológicas, la estrechez de visiones disciplinarias, su escasa relevancia para la reforma institucional y utilidad para la toma de decisiones, las necesarias comparaciones entre casos y su visibilidad.
