Abstract

This paper analyzes the structure and operability of the constitutional norms, in their consideration such as legal principles. First, proceed with the historical review on the appearance of legal principles in the theory of law, giving entrance to the development of the post-positivist theories with new theoretical models that account for the principles as sources of legal obligations. Second, starting from Manuel Atienza and Juan  Ruiz Manero. I will discuss a possible classification of the legal principles, and I will address its structural and functional analysis. Third, I will examine the inherent characters of the principles presented in constitutional norms. Finally, I will make a brief note about how to interpret and resolve conflicts between constitutional principles.
