GARCIA SAEZ, Jose Antonio. From Kelsen to Legal Informatics: An Interview with Mario G. Losano. Isonomía [online]. 2018, n.49, pp.187-219. ISSN 1405-0218.

Since his mentor, Norberto Bobbio, commissioned him the translation of the second edition of The Pure Theory of Law (1960), the career of Mario G. Losano has been long and multifaceted. In this interview, we talked about his education and the cultural background that involved the beginning of his academic career in Italy. Afterwards, we focus the talk on two of the main issues of his academic production. On the one hand, we go deeper into his Kelsenian studies, highlighting the historical method that characterizes his approach to legal-philosophical problems. And, on the other hand, we address the issue of origins and development of legal informatics, of which Professor Losano has been a leading precursor.
