The scientific evidence, understood as that made by an appropriately tested scientific method that generates reliable results, represents the greatest exponent of this phenomenon. Nevertheless, despite the recent of this kind of evidence, a new concept of it is having a growing impact on the Italian doctrine. This new concept stems from both: the relationship between the scientific evidence and the adversarial system, and the similarities between the scientific method and the legal process. The purpose of this paper is to point out these analogies in order to expose the novel configuration of the scientific evidence advocated for some Italian authors.
