The present study intends to apply a quantitative methodology to the history of legal thought and the circulations of legal ideas between France et Italy at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century. This is a pilot research which combines the study of bibliographical quotations and references in law journals and network analysis. It discusses two examples : book reviews and life insurance.
