4 THE ITALIAN LAW JOURNAL NO. 1 (2018) Will Formalities in the Digital Age: Some Comparative Remarks by Irma Sasso The work proposes to examine current testamentary will formalities in light of the digital revolution that has swept through modern society these past decades. The analysis will concentrate on the extent to which each of the three forms of ordinary testamentary will governed by Italian law is compatible with new electronic and digital technologies. The topic is addressed from a comparative standpoint, commencing from reforms in some North American jurisdictions and the solutions adopted there to make the methods by which a testator forms his or her will more consistent with the prevailing socio-economic context.
