Una modificación en este sentido consolidaría las tendencias, presentes en los sucesivos cambios que se han introducido en el régimen local, hacia una clara separación entre los dos órganos principales del gobierno municipal (plenario y alcaldía) y la gerencialización de su poder ejecutivo; por otro lado, daría respuesta a la reivindicación histórica de una elección directa, por parte de los vecinos, de la persona que debe ocupar la alcaldía de los municipios, lo cual se ajustaría a las crecientes aspiraciones sociales de incrementar los institutos de democracia directa. La hipótesis principal contemplada, la elección desdoblada de alcaldía y concejales, difiere considerablemente de las propuestas de reforma habitualmente planteadas en el sistema político español, por lo que el trabajo aborda también algunas dudas constitucionales sobre la cuestión.
This paper explores the necessary reforms, both in electoral legislation and institutional settings, to establish a pure presidential system in Spanish municipal governments, with a segregated election for councilors and mayor. A change in this regard consolidate trends present in the successive changes that have been introduced in the local government, to a clear separation between the two principal organs of the municipal government (plenary and mayor) and to increase its executive power; on the other hand, would address the historical claim of direct election by the neighbors of which person must occupy the mayor of the municipalities, which would conform to the growing social aspirations to increase the institutes of direct democracy. The main hypothesis contemplated, the splits election of mayor and councilors, differs considerably from the reform proposals usually raised in the Spanish political system, so that the work also addresses constitutional doubts on the matter.
