Security is one of the most imperative problems in Mexico and Latin America. In the 2018 Presidential Election in Mexico, security was one of the priority topics of the presidential candidates' debate. In this framework, the objective of this study is to answer the question, what is the regulation that provides legal support to the role played by the Armed Forces in battling organized crime? Part of the assumption is that the object of security is constituted by a general predicament of individual implicatures in the Articles of the Constitution that refer to Security. This last concept is understood as an emergent process of objective, subjective, temporal and contextually sensitive significance that allows the Constitutional Norm to institute hermeneutical broadening or shrinking processes expressed in general or individual predicaments.

Palabras llave : Pragmatic; security; object of security; significance; individuality; armed forces.
