    El presente artículo busca examinar los fundamentos de la so-beranía en el pensamiento político de jacobo vI de Escocia y su vínculo con el surgimiento del campo de lo político en el occidente europeo. para ello se tendrán en cuenta su posicionamiento frente al tiranicidio y su postura frente al crimen de brujería. tomando como referencia tres de sus tratados, se examinarán sus teoriza-ciones sobre los orígenes del orden político-institucional. además de demostrar la génesis teológica de su postura, se buscará desentrañar los argumentos a partir de los cuáles buscó construir su legitimidad como monarca absoluto y la vinculación de aquellos con el contexto histórico inmediato de su producción.
