Resumen
In the period between the wars, legal philosophy elaborated a system of concepts in which the normative order could find its logical rendition. The legal system (and the corresponding system of concepts) was understood as complete and capable of providing the solution of any problem. Law, a unified order, was self-sufficient and capable of performing a limitless regulative function. Moreover, law was perceived as basically grounded on the will of the State. Though law was seen as deriving from the State and subordinate thereto, there were other sources of law. The innovative work of Santi Romano, according to the maxim “ubi societas ibi jus”, sought to relate such a perspective to every social or ‘institutional’ phenomenon. Romano freed law from the restricted and restricting ties which it had with the State, widening its definition and impact, and giving rise to pluralistic and institutionalistic legal theories.
