Abstract

The main of this paper is to show the evolution of the concept of Natural Law in Spain during the 18th century using three authors: Mayans, Marín and Torres Flórez. All of them have a common background: they admited God as a basis of Natural Law theory, but in the authors we can find an evolution of the methodology, topics and authorities. They begun from the same point and they developed their theories in three different ways and arrieved to an different conclusions.
