Abstract

The Spanish Constitution of 1978 defined the rules of democracy today, as it is the legal instrument that regulates the relations between rulers and ruled, and represents the unity of the authorities, procedures and contents. Through computerized content analysis in this paper we evaluate the linguistic resources used in the most important work of legislation in Spain. This is a new technique, by which we intend to examine the various narratives that make up the overall meaning of the text. Altogether we analyzed the 40 topic � words most frequent words of the text, its lexical positioning and their hierarchical relationships. On the one hand, the analysis of the vocabulary of the Spanish Constitution illustrates an abundance of references to the types of standards and the legal system itself and, on the second hand, many allusions to the institutions themselves and the citizen rights and freedoms.
