Abstract

This paper evaluates the then famous Kunkel’s review of Hägerström’s Der römische Obligationsbebriff, better expression of the Scandinavian realism and its treatment of Roman law. Both the limits of Hägerström’s out-of-step anthropological approach, and of Kunkel’s criticism, still under the impact of Pandect law underlie behind this discussion.
