Sumario:This article recovers the content analysis as a research method for the social sciences. It aims to be a new impulse in studies that have legal normative data sources (laws, decrees, regulations, among others) in the investigation of historical periods or institutional structures. Describing moments in the backroom of the investigation, operational strategies proposed by various specialists are described, from which the reader can use themselves in their investigative process. Without blocking other theoretical-methodological alternatives that can better complement each process. It is aimed especially at studies within economics, sociology, political science, and other social sciences that recover legislative documents in their samplings, whether under quantitative or qualitative models. Tasks and conditions for the segmentation and categorization of the analysis units are described, as well as the operationalization of variables, and alternatives for data analysis are analyzed. Likewise, this work seeks to offer frameworks that base the value of legal norms in the explanation of economic, social and political processes and institutions, for which it delves into the contributions of historical new institutionalism.
