Abstract

Abstract: Through the analysis of the elaboration process of the 1948 Italian Constitution, the author compares postmoderm twentieth Century Constitutions, understood as consensual “Act of Reason”, rooted in the society and in its historical time with the legal modernism chartes of 18th and 19th Centuries, founded in the separation State and Society, deniers of social pluralism and responsible for the birth of legal absolutism.
