This article juxtaposes Santi Romano’s legal-pluralist paradigm with other approaches to illustrate why his theory contributes to contemporary debates in the international academic environment. I first identify the differences between Romano and his contemporaries. In this regard, it is my claim that his theory stands out from the rest as he was able to advocate a pluralist conception of law without dissolving the legal into the social. I then put Romano’s theory to the test of more recent literature on the issue with a view to arguing that it still remains an unsurpassed contribution to a pluralist understanding of law. The article concludes by contenting that Romano’s defence of the juristic method was meant to preserve the transformative force of the legal practice.

Abstract

This article juxtaposes Santi Romano’s legal-pluralist paradigm with other approaches to illustrate why his theory contributes to contemporary debates in the international academic environment. I first identify the differences between Romano and his contemporaries. In this regard, it is my claim that his theory stands out from the rest as he was able to advocate a pluralist conception of law without dissolving the legal into the social. I then put Romano’s theory to the test of more recent literature on the issue with a view to arguing that it still remains an unsurpassed contribution to a pluralist understanding of law. The article concludes by contenting that Romano’s defence of the juristic method was meant to preserve the transformative force of the legal practice.
