Abstract

Based on the theoretical premises that conceive the processes of state formation and nation building as "longue durée" processes, which we have extrapolated to the Central American integration process, and applying the methodological categories of Comparative Public Law, especially the Legal Formants Theory, this study intends to carry out a diachronic reconstruction of the doctrinal formant of SICA’s legal system. It will specially focus in analyzing the historical and political concepts, which constitute “collective singulars” of the Central American socio-historical context to which historical and constitutional works of legal scholars refer when developing and systematizing the constitutional doctrine in Central America and its relationship with the regional integration efforts in a period from 1800 to 1920. The main aim is to discover the evolution of the doctrinal formant in its initial stage and to explain the connection between the constitutional history of the Central American integration and the ideal of unity that still appear reflected in the texts of constitutions of some Central American in the region.
