The Editorial board and the Scientific board of Teoría & Derecho would like to pay tribute to Tomás S. Vives Antón, founder and intellectual architect of this journal. The germinal idea was to provide a space for debate and, above all, for the advancement of legal theory, philosophy and doctrine from the different areas of legal knowledge. A guiding thread of the publication that has survived and runs through each of the issues published since 2007.
