Abstract: Tis article analyzes the role of the jurist Quintiliano Saldaña (1878-1938) in the establishment of a European framework of criminal law in the early twentieth century. Saldaña, considered one of the most important authors in the history of law and criminology in Spain, had a signiXcant international success that has not been studied: he was professor of criminal law at the University of Madrid (1911-1938) and director of the school of Criminology (1935), and he was also cofounder of the Association Internationale de Droit Penal and an essential author in the development of «legal pragmatism» in Europe (particularly inspired by the ideas of William James and John Dewey). Te main objective of this paper is therefore to highlight the role played by Saldaña in the international society in early twentieth and show how his work helped to develop an opened debate about State and citizenship in the European context. Several European authors participated in the context promoted by Saldaña (in the latter sense, we must recognize the «cultural transfers» made possible by him). Te Spanish author allowed also the debate about the possibility of considering «legal pragmatism» as a psychological and sociological, empirical alternative to the old rational Psychology typical of Natural Law.
