Abstract

The Article contends that Argentina’s regulation of the elements of legal validity of an administrative act can be philosophically justified as a specification of the elements of Aquinas’ concept of “law”.

The Article expounds the definition and elements of validity required by Argentina’s Constitutional and Administrative Law. Then, it analyzes each one of those elements from the standpoint of each of the philosophical elements of Aquinas’ concept of “law”.

The Article concludes that each one of the administrative act’s elements of validity finds an explanation in one or several of the elements of the philosophical concept of “law”, demonstrating that this reasoning is an adequate way to explain those legal regulations.
