Abstract
At the end of 2019, we interviewed by email Professors Marcelo Neves and Aldo Mascareño, presenting them with a similar list of questions on their intellectual trajectories and the principal challenges involved in the task of adapting Niklas Luhmann’s social systems theory to the Latin American context. As well as the two interviews, we provide a brief presentation of what we call the ‘post-Luhmannian’ scenario and the potential for its Latin American reception to renew the systemic legacy in the present, including a short bibliometric exploration of some of the patterns evident in this reception.
