De un lado la división mecanicista, que conduce a plantear el derecho como algo puro, al que no se le puede relacionar con las ciencias naturales ni sociales. De otro lado, la visión sistémica, que implica comprender el objeto de estudio en interrelación con el entorno. Se toma partida por la segunda, enfrentando los pensamientos puristas a favor de una visión del objeto de estudio, no como algo que yace en el espacio, sino como algo dinámico, que se manifiesta en el tiempo y se comporta como proceso, que hace parte de ese entorno constituyendo un sistema mayor, y que por la consideración de proceso, elementos del entorno pasan a hacer parte de ese sistema y elementos del sistema pasan a hacer parte del entorno, y que tanto el entorno determina al sistema como el sistema al entorno. El derecho es considerado no como parte del sistema social, sino como una dimensión de dicho sistema y, por ello, inseparable del sistema social; pero, además, tanto el derecho como la sociedad tienen, y requieren para existir, un sustrato donde se encuentran los seres humanos como entidades biológicas, los recursos naturales y el planeta. Por consiguiente, si bien no se puede confundir el sistema social en tanto sistema comunicacional con la agrupación de seres humanos ni con el espacio físico donde existen los seres humanos, no se puede perder de vista que ese sistema físico constituye el sustrato del sistema comunicacional; siendo la cosa en sí, de la cual el sistema social es el fenómeno o el como sí, un mundo construido a partir de la representación del mundo físico.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract The starting point is the dual option of approaching the study of law. On the one hand, the mechanistic vision, which leads to posing the law as something pure, which cannot be related to the natural or social sciences. On the other hand, the systemic vision, which implies understanding the object of study in interrelation with the environment. As a starting point, the second option is taken, confronting the purist thoughts in favor of a vision of the object of study, not as something static in space and treated as a thing, but dynamic that manifests itself in time and behave as a process, which is part of that environment constituting a larger system, and that by considering process, elements of the environment become part of that system and elements of the system become part of the environment, and both the environment determines the system and the system the environment. Law is considered a dimensional system and therefore inseparable from the social system; but, in addition, both law and society, have, and require to exist, a substrate where human beings are found as biological entities, natural resources and the planet. Therefore, the social system as a communicational system cannot be confused with the grouping of human beings, or with the physical space where human beings exist, it cannot be forgotten that this real system constitutes the substrate of the communicational system; being the thing itself, of which the social system is the phenomenon or as if.]]></p></abstract>
