First, different contemporary currents (constructivist and neo-constitutionalist) are approached distinguishing between principles and rules or norms. As for these "principles", there are different problems to justify them rationally, being in many cases mere postulates that are proclaimed to justify the entire structure of later action. Finally, we deal with the principles of Natural Law immediately grasped (by abstractive induction) of reality, by reason of their evidence (the predicate is contained in the subject) by practical moral reason (first ratio), founded on human nature, in the very human essence as the principle of its operations, known by the metaphysical speculative reason (last ratio).
