We consider the Fermion-boson mapping in three dimensional space-time,
in the Abelian case, From the current algebra point of view. We show
that in a path-integral framework one can derive a general bosonizatio
n recipe leading, in the bosonic language, to the correct equal-time c
urrent commutators of the original Free fermionic theory. (C) 1996 Aca
