Abstract
The author considers FERRAJOLI‘s work to represent a milestone in contemporary legal culture due to its intellectual rigour and its profound practical implications. However, he criticizes the fact that it is based on legal positivism and ethical noncognitivism. The author finishes by pointing to the need to transform the theory, seeking to overcome these two obstacles, which would make possible «its incorporation into the context of a broad and unitary conception of practical reason».
