Abstract
The aim of this paper is to assess the influence of the Italian comparative law scholarship
outside its national boundaries, and particularly in Latin America, where it has had
its strongest impact. In order to achieve our goal we will start by sketching a picture
of the current status of the Italian comparative law, tracing its roots, explaining its
development and analyzing its weaknesses and strengths. After exploring its reception
in South America, we will ultimately try to envisage the future challenges, directions and
contributions of the Italian Theory – as we labeled the Italian comparative law “way”.
