Abstract

With this research work, what we intend to do is to study the different points of
view held by the treatises of criminal law in relation to the second of the requirements of self-defense, which is the rational need for defense, as established in
article 33 of the Organic Comprehensive Criminal Code.
As a starting point, it is necessary to consider that self-defense is one of the causes of justification, which has as its purpose the reaction that any person must take in the face of an illegitimate, actual and unprovoked aggression exercised by the person who suffers the attack, against the aggressor, using means
that do not exceed the need for defense.
