This article examines how the notion of “social function of property” became part of Argentina's Constitution (AC). After describing the classical property clause adopted in 1853 AC, the article shows how the 1949 constitutional reform adopted the social funcion of property and how that new constitution was abrogated by a military government in 1956. The article reviews the 1957 failed attempt to restore the social function of property. The final section analyzes the impact of the 1994 constitutional reform on the scope of the right to property.
