Sumario: The modern scientific revolution, as formulated in the works of Copernicus, Galileo, Newton and Leibniz, provided the foundations of a new empirical-rationalist paradigm based on mathematics. Our main goal is to demonstrate how this epistemology-methodology was also adopted within German political and legal thought of the 17th century. For this purpose we concentrate on the legal and political theories of Althusius and Pufendorf, whose works stand at the beginning and end of the scientific revolution in the field of Political Science and Modern Law in Germany. Analyzing the complex academic and scientific German context from 17thcentury we conclude that Althusius and Pufendorf took part in the scientific revolution using the methodological-epistemic grounds of the scienza nuova, but without renouncing the Aristotelian model of Politica.
