Este ensayo informa del estado de los debates en el campo de la Semiótica Jurídica sobre dos temas: el carácter narrativo de la práctica característica del discurso jurídico, dirigido a la adjudicación del juez, la sentencia; y la función argumentativa que aparece en el horizonte de ese carácter narrativo. Reconocemos detrás de estos temas un problema común sobre el que la semiótica debe detenerse: las operaciones estratégicas que las adjudicaciones enmascaran reenvían a regímenes narrativos donde se sancionan normas sobre el deber ser de las historias relatadas y sobre el campo discursivo donde los relatos emergen.This paper exposes current debates in the field of Legal Semiotics about two topics: the narrative nature of the practice of social discourse, oriented to adjudication, and the argumentative function that appears on the horizon of this narrative nature. We recognize one common problem behind these topics, and believe that Semiotics must pay attention: the strategic operations that the adjudications conceal remit to narrative regimes where rules are prescribed on normative ideal of story told and the discursive field where storytellings emerge.
