Convencionalismo jurídico: Teoría jurídica analítica para el siglo XXI

This paper accounts the different types of conventions that are presented in the legal context, their impact on the political and moral levels and its interference in analytical jurisprudence between 1961 and 2015. To do this, I will arrange three argumentative axes. The first is taxonomic, i.e. on the semantics and pragmatics of conventions. The second will distinguish and explain the types of conventions on the right. Finally, the third propose and critically evaluate two theses: a) there are ways in which legal operators decide to change the system to be effective; b) it is possible that some of the policy considerations do not lead to different solutions in practice the system of the kind of reasoning.
