Antidemocratic Geographies of the Environment in Spain: the legislative constitutionalization of the environmental geographic space

Abstract

In the present study, an analysis of scientific knowledge is carried out, in general, and in environmental matters, in particular, highlighting the importance of applying principles of observation, intuition, experimentation and reasoning in order to achieve the goal of that the Environment can have a well-ordered and mature doctrinal body that allows structuring and giving coherence to the different knowledge that comprises it, that is, that the Environment can be considered more than a scientific context, as a true Science. To this end, in the research, we start from the presence of the “contradiction” in the development and execution of social objectives, from the ascending or democratic conception of power, and the assumption of both notions to the legal-social discipline that provide the Law, thus highlighting the bankruptcy of the practical materialization of the Constitutional formula with which our constituent sanctioned the constitution of our current Social and Democratic State of Law, thus emphasizing its implications on the geographical space, in general, and the Environment, in particular.
