The democratic requirement is at the heart of modern international public life. The satisfaction of this requirement allows any modern state to be able to "dance" on the international public scene. In French-speaking black Africa, the role played by the constitutional judge in the entrenchment of democracy is major. He has succeeded in imposing himself as a true arbiter of the democratic game, a perfect regulator of relations between the public authorities. But one cannot help but notice that his work has not been equally successful everywhere. In some countries, the constitutional judge has met with multiform resistance, which to some extent weakens the democratic gains made so far. The present work sets itself the challenge of analyzing the contributions of this activist judge to the consolidation of democracy in Benin and Togo.
