Abstract

The present article aimed to analyze the application of the economic analysis of Law as a reference for the reasoning of judicial decisions. To that end, an analysis was carried out on the definitions of what is hermeneutics and economic analysis of law, based on the construction of the matrix rule of conduct for public administration. The method of the approach followed was empirical dialectical, using bibliographic, legislative and jurisprudential research, having a reference to the Law and Economics.

Keywords:

Economic analysis of law, Hermeneutics, Matrix rule
