Una lectura del debate Alexy-Bulygin desde el realismo jurídico clásico Fernández Peralta, Marcelo Alexy Bulygin iusfilosofía San Agustín Aristóteles Santo Tomás Alexy Bulygin iusphilosophy Saint Augustine Aristotle Saint Thomas Between two of the greatest exponents of current legal philosophy, Robert Alexy and Eugenio Bulygin, a debate took place around the concept of law and the relationship between law and morality. The first expounded the non-positivist thesis that there is a necessary conceptual relationship between both regulatory orders of human behavior. For his part, the professor at the University of Buenos Aires, co-author of “Normative Systems”, consistent with his legal positivist position, denied that such a link exists, placing emphasis on criticizing the argument of the claim for correction. This work aims to make a critical reading of both positions in light of the natural law conception of law presented by classical legal realism. It is noted that despite the clarity and forcefulness of the arguments expressed by both authors, in their debate there remain unanswered questions whose answers we could find from a thorough study of the classical texts of Saint Augustine, Aristotle and Saint Thomas. Entre dos de los mayores exponentes de la iusfilosofía actual, Robert Alexy y Eugenio Bulygin, se produjo un debate en torno al concepto del derecho y la relación entre derecho y moral. El primero expuso la tesis no positivista de que existe una relación conceptual necesaria entre ambos órdenes reguladores de la conducta humana. Por su parte, el profesor de la Universidad de Buenos Aires coautor de “Normative Systems”, consecuente con su postura iuspositivista, negó que exista tal vinculación poniendo énfasis en criticar el argumento de la pretensión de corrección. Este trabajo pretende hacer una lectura crítica de ambas posturas a la luz de la concepción iusnaturalista del derecho que presenta el realismo jurídico clásico. Se advierte que no obstante la claridad y contundencia de los argumentos vertidos por ambos autores, en su debate quedan preguntas sin responder cuyas respuestas podríamos encontrar a partir de un estudio minucioso de los textos clásicos de San Agustín, Aristóteles y Santo Tomás.
