¿Voluntad o razón en el origen del orden político? La respuesta de la teología política medieval y contemporánea.

The question at the title of this paper, “Will or reason in the origin of the political order? The answer of Medieval and Contemporary Political Theology�, renews an alternative that has become a locus classicus of political theory: the political order enters in the rational constitution of reality and, consequently, is not a created thing but has its existence discovered as an entity amongst other natural entities, or, on the other hand, the political order dues its existence exclusively to human institution and, consequently, appears as a result of an act of human will? I will not although analyze here both positions, one naturalist and another voluntarist, but I intend to show how the political theories of Gilles of Rome and Carl Schmitt answer the question about the Origin of the State.
