This article studies the constituent aspects of the theory of legal argumentation, using as a main object of analysis the thought of Robert Alexy. Among the relevant dimensions of Alexy’s theory of argumentation, the study examines the theory of balancing of legal principles, the objections presented to it and the answers given by the author to the critics directed at him.
