La historia del derecho se practica de maneras diferentes en Latinoamérica y Estados Unidos. Mientras que la historia del derecho en Estados Unidos intenta establecerse como una forma de crítica social, cuestionando el rol del derecho en producir y legitimar jerarquías sociales, la historia del derecho en Latinoamérica ha sido mayormente desarrollada como una forma de anticuarismo.
Legal history is practiced differently in Latin America and the United States. While US legal history strives to be a form of social critique, questioning the role of law in producing and legitimizing social hierarchies, legal history in Latin America has mostly been developed as a form of antiquarianism. This paper attempts to describe the historical and theoretical reasons that explain this methodological divide, including the role that lawyers have played in either opening the field of law to the social sciences or insulating it from other disciplines.
