Disposición testamentaria para realizar la afección de bienes en derecho italiano. Una hipótesis más allá del patrimonio protegido y del trust

This article intends to illustrate the very recent Italian experience on the fiduciary contract, as a tool capable of realizing a patrimonial segregation, different from trust.

Modernizar el derecho de sucesiones no significa tener que abdicar en favor del contrato, sino descubrir el valor de la autonomía privada y el potencial del acto de última voluntad.
