Fra “dottrina pura del diritto” e storia giuridica. Kelsen e la presunta “antitesi” di diritto pubblico e privato

Abstract

This paper proposes a historical-juridical reading of Kelsen’s essay on public and private law, in a double sense: as a reconstruction of the meaning that this distinction had in the first decades of the 20th century, and as an analysis of its disputed origins, not only in the context of Roman law but also in the Greek legal culture.
