These sources were critically analyzed; describing the findings found, allowing the development of the theoretical body in relation to the subject of study; to then issue an important set of arguments and conclusions. It is concluded that, the different criteria that have doctrinarians of the world, as well as national doctrinarians, same that made a wide approximation to the hermeneutic phenomenon and the feasibility of its application in a juridical context.
