Legal hermeneutic anthropology is a theoretical approach that seeks to understand law through the interpretation of symbols and meanings. This approach has been used in a variety of fields, including legal theory, jurisprudence, and legal philosophy. Legal hermeneutic anthropology is a valuable tool to understand the regional system of protection of human rights. This method can help understand the values and principles that underpin the system, the mechanisms and procedures that make up the system, and the decisions and rulings issued by the system's bodies. Likewise, the trilingual perspective that has been used in this essay allows us to understand the regional system of protection of human rights from a broader and plural perspective. This perspective strengthens and contributes to promoting a better understanding and application of human rights in the region.
