El positivismo jurídico analítico de Eugenio Bulygin
No full textEl presente trabajo analiza la posición de Eugenio Bulygin en el contexto de la filosofía y la teoría del derecho contemporáneas. En primer lugar, se detiene en el tipo de positivismo jurídico que Bulygin desarrolla, para poner énfasis en sus principales tesis metodológicas: su enfoque fundamentalmente analítico, el rol de la distinción entre normas y proposiciones y entre enunciados internos y externos. En la segunda parte del trabajo se analizan algunas tesis sustantivas del positivismo jurídico de Bulygin. En particular: sus tesis sobre la noción de validez jurídica, sobre la interpretación del derecho y sobre las normas regulativas y constitutivas. La idea del ensayo es no solo poner de relieve algunos de los aportes más importantes de la teoría jurídica de Eugenio Bulygin, sino también mostrar la coherencia interna de ese aporte y la forma en que sus propuestas sustantivas se relacionan con el enfoque metodológico analítico que está en el corazón de la teoría de este autor

(2024) https://doi.org/10.1007/s10336-023-02090-8Some theoretical models predict that nestling begging must be costly to transmit reliable information to parents about offspring hunger. One candidate cost is oxidative stress, which could impair growth or immune function. This hypothesis predicts that nestlings in a poor oxidative status should pay higher costs for a given amount of begging, hence beg at lower rates for a similar degree of hunger. To test this prediction, we experimentally induced a transient alteration of the oxidative status of Barn Swallow (Hirundo rustica) nestlings by administering them either a single dose of a pro-oxidant substance (BSO) or an antioxidant (vitamin E), and recorded their begging behaviour. The experiment was performed with 81 chicks from 21 nests, when nestlings were 5–9 days old. Brood size ranged from 2 to 5 chicks. Nestling mass was measured with an electronic balance to the nearest 0.1 g. Chicks were individually marked. Nestling behaviour was recorded with a high-definition video camera (Canon HF S21) during the afternoon, starting four hours after chicks had received the experimental treatment. Nestling behaviour was recorded with a high-definition video camera (Canon HF S21) during the afternoon, starting four hours after chicks had received the experimental treatment. Chicks treated with vitamin E increased their begging rates in the hours following treatment. However, and contrary to prediction, BSO nestlings did not decrease begging compared to controls. These inconsistent results are difficult to explain by the hypothesis that begging performance is mediated by the oxidative status of nestlings because chicks with an impaired oxidative status (the BSO group) begged the same as controls. Alternatively, vitamin E may alleviate the inhibitory effects on begging of stress responses mediated by glucocorticoids.complete_dataset_Fuertes_Recuero_etalPeer reviewe

Universality and normative systems
No full textEl presente trabajo discute un conjunto de ideas planteadas por Jorge Rodríguez en su libro Teoría analítica del derecho al analizar lasnormas jurídicas como razones para la acción. En primer lugar, presenta una crítica a las tesis sostenidas por Rodríguez respecto de aquello que significa asumir una concepción universalista de las razones que un sistema jurídico ofrece. En concreto, se critica la idea de que un sistema de normas universales ha de ser necesariamente consistente y establecer en cada caso un balance perfecto que determine qué se debe hacer considerando todos los factores relevantes. En segundo lugar, el trabajo presenta una crítica a la distinción que el autor propone entre problemas de derrotabilidad vinculados con la identificación y con la aplicación de las normas jurídicas en la medida en que ella no es coherente con la posición universalista que supuestamente él asume. Por último, se ofrecen algunos ejemplos que intentan mostrar en qué modo una concepción universalista de los sistemas jurídicos puede dar cuenta de la existencia de conflictos entre sus normas sin que ello signifique aceptar que sus normas son derrotables sobre la base de consideraciones extrasistemáticas al momento de su aplicación, i.e. sin renunciar a su tesis de que ellas ofrecen razones uniforme e invariablemente relevantes.This paper discusses a number of ideas put forward by Jorge Rodríguez in his book Teoría analítica del derecho in analyzing legal norms as reasons for action. First, I present a critique of Rodríguez's theses about what it means to adopt a universalist conception of the reasons that a legal system offers. In particular, I criticize the notion that a system of universal norms should necessarily be consistent and determine in each case a perfect balance between its norms that allows one to establish what should be done everything considered. Second, I criticize the distinction the author proposes between contestability problems related to the identification and application of legal norms as inconsistent with the universalist position he purports to advocate. Finally, some examples are given that attempt to show how a universalist conception of legal systems can explain the existence of conflicts between their universal norms without accepting that they are defeasible on the basis of extra-systematic considerations at the time of their application, that is, without abandoning the thesis that universal norms provide uniformly and invariably relevant reasons.Fil: Redondo, Maria Cristina.
