DIAZ COUSELO, José M.. Fundation and strengthening of the Institute during the administration of Ricardo Levene. Rev. hist. derecho [online]. 2017, n.54, pp.1-10. ISSN 1853-1784.

In the dissertation that is published today we have dealt with the history of an institution which had a significant influence within the field of Argentine legal culture in general and in particular in the development of the study of the past of law in Argentine. This institution existence is due, to a great extent, to the tenacity with which Ricardo Levene presented the necessity of its creation to the authorities of the Faculty of Law and Social Sciences. As a consequence of his petition the Directive Council made the arrangements for its foundation. It is also outstanding Levene´s tireless and successful work in the management of the institution, where he was holder since its foundation until his death. The effective activity of Levene allowed this center of study to be considered as a pioneer among those dedicated to the investigation of the legal past and it also placed the Argentine legal historiography in the foreground.

Keywords : Institute - History - Law - Levene´s school.
