This article analyzes business law from the perspective of the Princonser method, an innovative approach based on universal principles and laws. Using the method's analysis matrix, the interactions between the foundations of law and global economic dynamics are identified. A solution to the problem of regulatory adaptability is presented through the application of universal laws, emphasizing the importance of universal essence, the inseparability of energy and matter, and the conservation of proportions in legal systems. Finally, a universal law is proposed that synthesizes the stable functioning of business law.

Materials and methods

Elements of the Princonser method

The Princonser method is based on universal principles and laws that explain the interaction between energy and matter in all systems. These principles include universal essence, inseparability, conservation, destruction, and the laws of dependency, interaction, integration, disintegration, temporality, and intemporality.

Princonser analysis matrix

The analysis matrix is structured into ten steps, each associated with a principle of the method. The arguments developed in each step are integrated into this article to provide a comprehensive analysis of business law.

Identification of the problem

Argumentation with the principle of destruction

Rule: Transformation of matter into energy.

Universal premise: All unstable material systems are destroyed, releasing energy.

In business law, the instability of outdated or ineffective norms leads to their elimination, creating space for new interpretations and legal applications. This elimination process allows the norms freed from their material form to transform into principles guiding the creation of more effective regulations. Therefore, business law is constantly renewed by destroying outdated norms and transforming their essence into energetic principles applicable to new economic realities. For example, the elimination of outdated commercial laws in countries adopting free trade agreements demonstrates how the business legal system evolves and modernizes.

Argumentation with the law of disintegration

Rule: Transformation of matter into energy within the system.

Universal premise: In all unstable systems, matter transforms into energy with a rupture of proportionality.

In business law, when a norm loses its effectiveness or relevance, its content (matter) transforms into legal principles and guidelines (energy) that guide new interpretations. This process allows the business legal system to renew itself by disintegrating obsolete regulations and liberating principles applicable to current contexts. Thus, the disintegration of ineffective norms strengthens business law by converting its elements into dynamic legal principles. A practical case is the elimination of outdated norms on physical commerce and their replacement with general principles applicable to digital commerce.

Argumentation with the law of temporality

Rule: Transformation of matter into energy released outside the system.

Universal premise: All systems are temporary due to their disintegration.

In business law, norms are temporary as they respond to specific contexts and, upon losing relevance, release principles applicable beyond their original scope. This temporality ensures that business regulations can be replaced or adapted to respond to new economic realities. Therefore, the temporary nature of norms allows business law to continuously evolve, maintaining its utility and effectiveness. An example is the repeal of traditional monopoly norms and their replacement with antitrust laws applicable to technology companies.

Solution to the problem

Argumentation with the principle of conservation

Rule: Cycle of transformation of energy into matter and matter into energy.

Universal premise: All forms of energy are conserved in a cycle of transformation from energy to matter and matter to energy.

Business law maintains a constant cycle between the creation of norms (energy transformed into matter) and their practical application (matter feeding back into legal energy). This cycle ensures that the general principles of business law materialize into specific regulations tailored to the needs of businesses and markets. Thus, business law remains current by transforming economic needs into new norms and legal adaptations. A practical case is the regulation of new technologies, such as smart contracts, where traditional principles of business law are transformed into specific regulations for the digital era.

Argumentation with the law of integration

Rule: Transformation of energy into integrated matter.

Universal premise: In all stable systems, energy transforms into matter while conserving proportionality.

In business law, legal interpretation (energy) materializes into specific regulations and contracts that structure commercial relationships (matter). This transformation of energy into matter ensures that the general principles of law are integrated into concrete solutions for businesses. Therefore, the integration of legal energy into specific norms ensures that business law is an effective and functional tool. An example is the incorporation of corporate social responsibility principles into specific regulations on sustainability and ethical business practices.

Argumentation with the law of intemporality

Rule: Transformation of energy released into matter outside the system.

Universal premise: In all systems, matter is temporary and energy is intemporal; therefore, energy transcends the system and integrates into another system according to the law of dependency and interaction.

In business law, legal principles (energy) derived from temporary norms transcend their initial context and influence the creation of new normative systems. This transcendent capability allows the general principles of business law to integrate into global regulations and international treaties. Thus, the legal energy of business law ensures its universal relevance by integrating into broader normative systems and adapting to global contexts. An example is how the principles of commercial arbitration transcend national laws and integrate into international treaties, such as UNCITRAL arbitration agreements.

Identification of the law

Argumentation with universal essence

Rule: Identification of energy and matter.

Universal premise: All systems in the universe are units of energy and matter; therefore, each system represents universal essence.

Business law, as a system, combines material elements (laws, contracts, regulations) and energetic elements (will, interpretation, and legal application), confirming it as a manifestation of universal essence. This interaction between matter (written norms) and energy (legal interpretation) is essential for ensuring stability and effectiveness in commercial relations governed by business law.

Therefore, business law operates as a stable system, where the proportional interaction between energy and matter ensures its ability to dynamically regulate economic exchanges and resolve legal conflicts. A concrete example is the regulation of labor contracts in multinational companies, where contractual clauses (matter) must be interpreted and applied (energy) to ensure compliance with labor laws.

Argumentation with the principle of inseparability

Rule: Unity of universal essence.

Universal premise: In all systems, energy and matter are inseparable. In business law, legal norms (matter) and their interpretation by lawyers and judges (energy) are inseparable since norms lack effectiveness without their proper application.

This inseparability ensures that business law can adapt to economic dynamics, guaranteeing that written norms align with market needs. Therefore, the unity of energy and matter in business law allows for the creation of a flexible and coherent regulatory framework capable of responding to the challenges of economic transactions. An example of this inseparability is the application of norms regarding mergers and acquisitions, where legal interpretation ensures transparency and fairness between the parties.

Argumentation with the law of dependency

Rule: Dependency of energy and matter.

Universal premise: In all stable systems, energy and matter are dependent on each other in the same proportion of interaction.

In business law, the effectiveness of written norms (matter) directly depends on their interpretation and practical application (energy) by legal actors. This proportional dependency ensures that legal regulations are functional and consistent with the real needs of the market. Therefore, the interdependence between energy and matter in business law guarantees a balance between normative creation and its practical execution. An example is the relationship between antitrust laws and their enforcement by regulatory authorities, where both depend on each other to maintain fair competition.

Argumentation with the law of interaction

Rule: Sequential transformation of energy and matter.

Universal premise: In all stable systems, energy and matter transform into each other while conserving proportionality.

In business law, legal norms (matter) evolve through their interaction with legal interpretation (energy), enabling their adaptation to market dynamics. This interaction ensures that business laws are not static but transform based on economic needs and social demands. Therefore, business law maintains its relevance and effectiveness by continuously interacting between the creation of new norms and their practical interpretation. An example is the transformation of traditional commercial laws into specific regulations for electronic commerce, such as digital contracts and online consumer protection policies.

Statement of the law

Law of functional balance in business law

In business law, the proportion between legal energy (interpretation and application) and legal matter (written norms and contracts) ensures a functional balance that guarantees the stability and adaptability of the business legal system in response to economic and social changes. This balance facilitates the proportional transformation of energy into matter and vice versa, integrating general principles into specific solutions and continuously renewing the normative system according to contemporary needs.

Mathematical representation of the scientific law

  • Stable proportionality:

E/M = k

Where k represents the constant of proportionality reflecting the stability of the business legal system.

  • Reciprocal transformation:

ΔE ∝ ΔM

Changes in legal energy (ΔE) are directly proportional to changes in legal matter (ΔM).

  • Dynamic functional balance:

E + M = U

The sum of legal energy (E) and legal matter (M) at any given moment equals the total unity (U) of the normative system.
