Abstract: the aim of my paper is
to show that a consistent economic analysis brought to its logical conclusions
should destroy any theory of property rights, and as such it is inconsistent
with its own premises, and especially with the ideological presuppositions of
quite all of its folloers. The suggested alternative here is a kind of
“reversed” Hayek: I mean an active use of historicism and institutional
analysis from a political stendpoint that is preciseply contrary to the right
wing approach that has been sponsorized by Hayek.
My conclusion is then that maybe we must start
afresh from the Scottish Enlightment, which founded the basis of the present
analysis of ownership and ownerhip economies, following the Austrian School of
Economics toward radically very
different political positions.
