Usage Note

Ordenamiento refers to a system or set of rules that organises something, often used in legal contexts: ordenamiento jurídico is the entire body of a country's law. It is distinct from orden (order) in that it emphasises a structured, codified arrangement rather than a simple command.

Examples
