En la Convención reformadora argentina de 1957, el bloque del Partido Comunista presentó un proyecto de constitución, diseñado para establecer una república democrática, parlamentaria, representativa, federal y popular, consagrando principios organizativos para la economía nacional y un amplio conjunto de derechos, incluyendo los sociales. En este artículo se analiza el contexto en que se desarrolló la Convención, describiendo las severas restricciones políticas impuestas por la dictadura militar en el poder, como así también las acciones y estrategias del Partido Comunista en ese marco. Luego se revisa, con los derechos sociales como perspectiva principal, el contenido del proyecto comunista de Constitución. El estudio de esta visión alternativa del constitucionalismo social planteada en el marco de un proceso de reforma constitucional argentina brinda elementos para una comprensión más profunda y crítica de la cláusula de derechos sociales finalmente adoptada en aquella instancia.
