ABSTRACT
How does law deal with the changes and challenges posed by disruptive new realities and how do people, its agents and its addressees respond to them? That is the key theme and the common thread of the contributions to the edited volume, addressing the different sources of these disruptions: disruptive innovations of technologies or business practices, social changes or constitutional transformations, the impact of globalisation and interdependence affecting the development of international, transnational and global law. It has resulted from an international conference marking the centennial of the University of Ljubljana Faculty of Law, and many of the contributions draw inspiration from the opening lecture of the first Dean of the Faculty, Leonid Pitamic, entitled Law and revolution, held on 15 April 1920. We could not resist doing the same in preparing this introduction.
