Hermeneutics and constitutional systematic axiotheological interpretation

Abstract

Hermeneutical processes are communication processes in which language is the toll used to pass messages on; messages which senses are constantly redefined. In a legal framework, linguistic utterances are specially organized on legal norms to be interpreted. The legal hermeneutic activity is organized around argumentative possibilities intended to define the most appropriate interpretation for the solution of concrete daily-life problems. However, this definition is not freely available to the interpreter, as there are previous normative references, whose axiological and theleological content must be respected so as to preserve constitutional systematicity.
