Ena ključnih vprašanj pravne teorije so, zakaj pravo kot tako velja, iz kje izhaja in kaj je poslednja (najvišja) norma, ki ga utemeljuje (oz. mu daje veljavo). S temi vprašanji so se ukvarjali tudi Hans Kelsen in člani njegovega seminarja, med katere je sodil Leonid Pitamic. Delo akademika Marijana Pavčnika Čista teorija prava kot izziv je v svojem bistvu prikaz nekaterih Pitamičevih pomislekov, idej, misli oz. ugovorov, ki osvetljujejo nekatere vidike razvoja čiste teorije prava ter Pitamičev prispevek in presežek v njem.

The main issues of the legal theory are: what gives validity to the law, where does it derive from, and what is its foundation (ultimate or supreme legal norm, which gives it the validity). These questions have been dealt with also by Hans Kelsen and his circle, among whom was also Leonid Pitamic. Academic Marijan Pavčnik’s book Pure theory of law as a challenge is a display of some of Pitamic’s concerns, ideas, thoughts and objections, which highlight some aspects of development of pure theory of law and Pitamic’s contribution and surplus in it.
