1. A neo-structural legal perspective to economic power analysis -- 2. Economic power structures : creation and existence -- 3. Power structures : dynamics and behavior -- 4. Conclusion : from a general theory of economic power to a general theory of law?
In this provocative book Calixto Salomão Filho builds a strong case for why economic power cannot be considered a mere market phenomenon. Taking the forgotten realities and effects of these power structures into account, this comprehensive legal analysis persuasively argues the need for a new theory.
