Resumen

Este artículo conceptualiza el término “litigio estratégico” para proporcionar una definición. El litigio estratégico es un instrumento cada vez más usado en Europa por parte de personas y organizaciones para conseguir diversos objetivos, y hay un interés académico creciente por el tema. Sin embargo, la definición exacta de “litigio estratégico” sigue siendo poco clara. Por tanto, el artículo emplea el método de investigación de la conceptualización junto con una investigación de bases de datos y literatura adicional, y propone una definición. En primer lugar, se fija en el concepto de fondo, que incluye el abanico de significados relacionados con el término “litigio estratégico”; a continuación, se forma un concepto sistemático. De este modo, se parte del enfoque de “condiciones necesarias y suficientes” (CNS) para desarrollar las condiciones necesarias y/o suficientes para que un caso encaje en la categoría de litigio estratégico. Por añadidura, se examinan las relaciones conceptuales externas del término.
