(according to) legal scholarship (or) academic opinion (or) the opinion of legal scholars (etc.)
In this context "doctrine" and "doctrina" are false cognates. As it is most often used in Spanish legal contexts, "doctrina" denotes the writings of law professors and legal commentators, and can be translated as “legal scholarship,” “academic opinion,” “legal writing, “academic writing,” “the opinion of legal scholars,” etc.
