Only in recent years, this complex stage of life has begun to be addressed, especially by Civil Law, Criminal Law and Philosophy of Law. However, there are still few studies which focus on the constitutional perspective and the rights of the elderly. That is the profile of the present work, which carries out a detailed and comparative analysis of the regulations of the highest hierarchy in Argentina. It emphasizes that, in accordance with postmodern times, the elderly person is a weak individual who frequently becomes a victim of economic, structural, physical, psychological and sexual violence. It also stresses that Law is an instrument of great value to overcome this weakness, by strengthening the living conditions and status of the elderly. La problemática de la ancianidad no ha sido históricamente objeto de interés del debate jurídico. Recién en los últimos lustros ha comenzado a ser abordada esta compleja etapa vital, especialmente desde el Derecho Civil, el Derecho Penal y la Iusfilosofía. Empero, son aún escasos los estudios centrados en la perspectiva constitucional y en los derechos subjetivos de las personas mayores. Tal perfil reviste el presente trabajo, que efectúa un análisis detallado y comparativo de los plexos normativos de la máxima jerarquía en la República Argentina. Destaca que el anciano es un individuo débil, en concordancia con los tiempos postmodernos, que frecuentemente resulta víctima de violencia económica, estructural, física, psíquica y sexual. Enfatiza asimismo que el Derecho constituye un instrumento de sumo valor para subsanar dicha debilidad, por medio del fortalecimiento de las condiciones de vida y status de las personas mayores.
