Abstract
Legal philosophy in early twentieth-century Italy forms a composite landscape of markedly different streams of thought, ranging from natural law theory, in Giorgio Del Vecchio’s neo-Kantian rendition of it, to Santi Romano’s institutionalism, and including Francesco Carnelutti’s general theory of law and the antiphilosophical defense of Roman law that Pietro Bonfante made in a famous and controversial academic keynote address delivered in Rome in 1917.
