Metodologia E Epistemologia Da Análise Econômica Do Direito, Ivo T. Gico Jr.
Metodologia E Epistemologia Da Análise Econômica Do Direito, Ivo T. Gico Jr.
Ivo Teixeira Gico Jr.
Trata-se de uma contextualização da Análise Econômica do Direito – AED dentro da epistemologia jurídica em um contexto civilista. A partir de uma revisão dos paradigmas dominantes no direito brasileiro, contextualiza-se histórica e epistemologicamente a abordagem da AED. O objetivo é oferecer uma primeira abordagem por juristas e economistas, ressaltando algumas utilidades e limitações para ambos os campos. Uma vez contextualizada a AED no direito, alguns pontos não exaustivos da metodologia econômica e, portanto, da própria AED, são apresentados e analisados em termos de compatibilidade com os paradigmas dominantes do direito. O resultado é uma primeira aproximação do que seja …
Law As Referent, Craig G. Bateman
Law As Referent, Craig G. Bateman

In it I adapt some of my earlier constitutional theoretical work to engage the topic of that symposium: the so-called “interpretation/construction distinction”. I make two related criticisms of the distinction: (1) it relies on a flawed conception of linguistic meaning, and (2) while these flaws may be harmless in the “easy” cases of interpretation, they are much more problematic in the difficult cases of most concern. Thus, I doubt the ultimate utility of the distinction as part of a “true and correct” model of constitutional theory. …

Lon L. Fuller's The Case of the Speluncean Explorers is a classic in jurisprudence. The case presents five judicial opinions which clash with each other and produce for the reader an exhilarating excursion into fundamental theories of law and the state and the role of courts vis-i-vis legislatures and executives. Though the issues articulated by Fuller are timeless, the past thirty years in jurisprudential scholarship have produced at least one major new vantage point—the "rights thesis".
