BRAVO LIRA, Bernardino. Construcción y desconstrucción: El sino del racionalismo moderno de la ilustración a la postmodernidad. Rev. hist. derecho [online]. 2009, n.37. ISSN 1853-1784.

It is often said that after the battle we are all generals.  Something similar happens with modern rationalism. Starting with the Cartesian "cogito" up to Lyotard's meta-narrative, a cycle is completed. The revisiting of the great themes of European thought: God, man and nature ended in a dislocation between the temporal world and the supernatural hereafter. However, as a consequence of this, man ended up being a tiny particle in the universe, of whom, says Vattimo, it would be foolish to think he could change anything, Then, the rationalist illusion of reshaping the world according to the dictates of human reason alone crumbled by it own weight, as exemplified by the Soviet Union. The strings of this history are beyond of moments and sceneries. They also include challenges between authors and characters, such as Lorenz von Stein and Karl Marx, or converge, such as Andrés Bello and Heinrich Ahrens, Arturo Enrique Sampay and Hanns- Albert Steger, and Andrei Wishinky and James Bovarrd.

Palabras clave : Rationalism; Enlightenment; Postmodernism; Coding; Statelization of the Law.
