Argentine judicial reform and crime fighting efforts

Overview

High-ranking members of the Argentine judiciary have recently focused on institutional improvements and structural reforms. Horacio Rosatti, President of the Supreme Court, emphasized the need for a “judicial cleanup” to better combat organized crime and money laundering, particularly in Rosario. He noted that while statistics show some improvement, significant work is required to target criminal networks.

Concurrently, Supreme Court Justice Carlos Rosenkrantz has advocated for reforming the judicial selection process managed by the Council of the Magistracy. Rosenkrantz argued that the current system lacks objectivity and fails to adequately test the legal knowledge of candidates. This push for reform has seen local support, with members of the Superior Tribunal of Corrientes proposing to implement similar initiatives within their province.
