RULES V. OUTCOMES: NEW RADICAL APPROACHES TO THE INCOSISTENCIES OF PROPERTY RIGHTS ANALYSIS

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.
