V počastitev stoletnice njenega obstoja je marca 2020 na Pravni fakulteti Univerze v Ljubljani potekala tridnevna mednarodna znanstvena konferenca z naslovom Pravo in (r)evolucija 1920–2020. Pretekle izkušnje, prihodnji izzivi. Naslov konference je povzemal naslov prvega predavanja, ki ga je imel na novoustanovljeni fakulteti profesor Leonid Pitamic. Predavatelji, med katerimi je bila večina tujih, so obravnavali različne širše vidike sedanjega pravnega trenutka in problemov, ki jih ta prinaša. Zbornik Law and Revolution, ki so ga uredili Matej Accetto in Katja Škrubej s Pravne fakultete Univerze v Ljubljani ter profesor Univerze v New Yorku Joseph H. H. Weiler, vsebuje štirinajst razširjenih referatov s konference. Knjiga je lep in dostojen poklon stoletnici delovanja Pravne fakultete Univerze v Ljubljani. Raznolikost tem in temeljitost njihove obravnave mu dajeta trajno vrednost, bralcu pa veliko zanimivega in koristnega branja. Med posebnimi kakovostmi zbornika kot celote je treba omeniti odlični angleški prevod Pitamičevega nastopnega predavanja, na katerega se v svojih prispevkih sklicujejo številni avtorji zbornika. S tem je to odlično besedilo stopilo na svetovni oder idej in pravne misli, hkrati pa je povezalo začetke pravne fakultete z njeno sedanjo vpetostjo v mednarodni prostor.

To celebrate its centenary, the three-day international scientific conference Law and (R)evolution 1920–2020: Past Experiences, Future Challenges, was held at the Faculty of Law at the University of Ljubljana in March 2020. The conference title was inspired by the inaugural lecture delivered by Professor Leonid Pitamic at the newly established faculty. Most speakers came from abroad and discussed various broader aspects of the current legal situation and the problems it poses. The book Law and Revolution, edited by Matej Accetto, Katja Škrubej (both from the Faculty of Law in Ljubljana) and Joseph H. H. Weiler (a professor at New York University), contains fourteen expanded versions of papers presented at the conference. This beautiful and dignified book pays tribute to the centenary of the Faculty of Law at the University of Ljubljana. The diversity of topics and the thoroughness of their treatment give the book lasting value, providing readers with interesting and useful insights. One of the collection’s special qualities is the excellent English translation of Pitamic’s inaugural lecture, to which many of the authors refer to in their contributions. This has elevated this exceptional text to the global stage of legal thought and ideas, while also linking the origins of the law faculty with its current integration into the international arena.
