filosofía del derecho

Filosofía del derecho, or philosophy of law, is the study of fundamental questions about law’s nature, purpose, and principles. It explores what law is, how it relates to morality and justice, and the reasons for following legal rules. This discipline examines concepts like rights, authority, equality, and responsibility, aiming to understand how laws serve society and how they can be fair and legitimate. It provides a deeper reflection on the moral and philosophical foundations that underpin legal systems and their role in organizing human coexistence.
