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.

Eliot on Swinburne : Monateri and a Newer Approach to Language and Reference



P. G. Monateri 


University of Turin, Faculty of Law ; Law School, University of Torino (Italy) 

October 28, 2013




Abstract:      
In this paper P.G. Monaterianalyses the way in which T.S.Eliot criticized Swinburn's theory to propose a newer theory of language and reading. First of all we can appraise words more as 'views' than as 'sounds', superseding the structuralist approach of De Saussure, and its philosophical applications, to introduce an 'Iconic Turn' into the proper heart of linguistic theory itself. Secondly we may try to introduce a newer concept of 'reading' as 'ontological reading', to bypass the divide between traditional American Close reading and the 'Theory' as it has been introduced by Paul de Man.
Moreover the paper is a first attempt to redefine the problem of reference reframing the same matter of reference.
In this way a direct plunge into literary theory and literariness can bring a new light to the appreciation of their social and political impacts.
