    El ensayo emplea el marco conceptual de las teorías críticas del Derecho para sacar a la luz algunas cuestiones de especial relevancia en relación con el reconocimiento jurídico igualitario de las personas mayores y sus derechos (es decir, la vulnerabilidad, la institucionalización, el edadismo como forma específica de opresión), argumentando a favor de la necesidad de desarrollar una verdadera teoría crítica del Derecho en relación con la edad senil.

    The essay employs the conceptual framework of critical legal theories to highlight several key issues related to the equal legal recognition of older individuals and their rights (e.g., vulnerability, institutionalization, andageism as a specific form of oppression), arguing for the necessity of developing a genuine critical theory of law concerning old age.
