The Modern Western political reason constituted under the paradigm of the nation-state conforms itself markedly based on a security principle. This is a work of a political order based on the ideas of predictability, coherence and security, which bets on technique (and on the regimes of truth constituted from it) as a means to achieve this end. This conformation of a "security society" is explored by Michel Foucault in his works developed in the second half of the 1970s, in which the French philosopher sets out to investigate the specificity of the "art of governing" in modern politics regarding its practices, techniques and rationalities guided by a security principle. From this theoretical framework, and following its continuity in the works of Giorgio Agamben and in critical security studies, the present research seeks to analyze the function of "security" in the Rule of Law paradigm that, as a value raised to principle's level, is conformed as a fundamental right to be guaranteed by the State as a priority, constituting itself as a corollary of governmental action and serving to mark it in the spectrum of legitimacy as an exercise of duty or as an abuse of power.
