Law and Political Economy, Neoliberalism, Legal Realism, American Institutionalism, 20th century Synthesis, Intellectual HistoryResumen
El movimiento “Law and Political Economy” (LPE) busca desafiar la hegemonía de la escuela de Chicago en el campo de derecho y economía y proponer una alternativa política al neoliberalismo. Para evaluar sus posibilidades, debemos clarificar la relación entre el neoliberalismo y los orígenes intelectuales del LPE—el Realismo Jurídico y el Institucionalismo Americano—cuyo declive coincidió con el ascenso de la Escuela de Chicago y la Public Choice Theory. Estos movimientos asimilaron y redirigieron ideas centrales de los antecesores del LPE. Sostengo que LPE debe recuperar críticamente su historia intelectual para evitar una subversión similar. Esto se ilustra a través de la trayectoria de una idea clave compartida por estas corrientes: que el poder económico equivale al poder político. Concluyo proponiendo que esta idea exige una atención renovada a lo que denomino “modalidades de poder”.
