Markets, Constitutions, and Inequality
This interdisciplinary collection examines the significance of constitutions in setting the terms and conditions upon which market economies operate. With some important exceptions, most notably from the tradition of Latin American constitutionalism, scholarship on constitutional law has paid negligible attention to questions of how constitutions relate to economic phenomena. A considerable body of literature has debated the due limits of the exercise of executive and legislative power, and discussions about legitimacy, democracy, and the adjudication of rights (civil and political, and socioeconomic) abound, yet scant attention has been paid by constitutional lawyers to the ways in which co...

Designing Indicators for a Plural Legal World
Designing Indicators for a Plural Legal World engages with the role of quantification in law, and its impact on law and development and judicial reform. It seeks to examine how different institutions shape and influence the making and use of legal indicators globally. This book sheds light on the limitations of existing quantification tools, which measure rule of law due to their lack of engagement with contexts and countries in the Global South. It offers an alternative framework for measurement, which moves away from an institutional look at rule of law, to a bottom up, user centered approach that places importance on the lives that people lead, and the challenges that they face. In doing so, it offers a way of thinking about access to justice in terms of human capabilities.

Right to Development and Illicit Financial Flows from Africa
Gerard Emmanuel Kamdem Kamga, Serges Djoyou Kamga, and Arnold Kwesiga explore a relatively new phenomenon, namely referred to as illicit financial flows, that aim to impoverish the African continent and prevent its economic development. There is a direct relationship between illicit financial flows and failed initiatives to realize the right to development on the continent. For instance, in 2016, Africa received $41 billion towards public development while $50 billion left the continent through illicit financial flows. The gap between recent economic achievements on the continent and its state of generalized underdevelopment coupled with rampant poverty, corruption, prolonged economic crisis...
Neoliberal Legality
Neoliberalism has been studied as a political ideology, an historical moment, an economic programme, an institutional model, and a totalising political project. Yet the role of law in the neoliberal story has been relatively neglected, and the idea of neoliberalism as a juridical project has yet to be considered. That is: neoliberal law and its interrelations with neoliberal politics and economics has remained almost entirely neglected as a subject of research and debate. This book provides a systematic attempt to develop a holistic and coherent understanding of the relationship between law and neoliberalism. It does not, however, examine law and neoliberalism as fixed entities or as philoso...
El estado regulador en Colombia
La creciente importancia que tiene la regulación en las agendas de políticas públicas nacionales y transnacionales se debe, en buena medida, a la rápida difusión global del modelo de Estado regulador. Sin embargo, veinticinco años después de que la Constitución Política adoptara la regulación como la herramienta para gobernar la economía, es poco lo que sabemos sobre la forma como funciona, no solo en las normas jurídicas sino también en la práctica, el Estado regulador colombiano.Los artículos reunidos en esta obra, por una parte, sugieren que antes de ofrecer fórmulas y soluciones debemos entender, a través de análisis con¬textuales capaces de reflejar las particularidades de los regímenes regula¬dores locales, la dimensión de la crisis del Estado regulador en Colombia. Y, por otra, ofrecen algunas lecciones que el diseñador de políticas públicas puede tener en cuenta al momento de avanzar hacia un fortalecimiento del Estado regulador en Colombia.
¿Regla Perse y Regla de la razón?: interpretación de las normas de competencia
En Colombia se presentan diferentes posturas doctrinarias respecto de la viabilidad de interpretar las disposiciones de antimonopolios bajo las reglas de origen norteamericano denominadas como Regla per se y Regla de la Razón. Por esto el Departamento de Derecho Económico de la Universidad Externado de Colombia presenta a la comunidad académica las reflexiones académicas expuestas en el "evento" ¿Regla per se y Regla de la Razón?: interpretación de las normas de competencia". En esta oportunidad un grupo destacado de expertos analizó, con detenimiento y rigor académico la evolución conceptual y los aspectos teóricos y prácticos de dichas reglas, con el propósito de hacer un aporte doctrinario sobre este tema y estudiar la viabilidad o no de su aplicación en el contexto nacional, así como el proceso que con dichas reglas se ha surtido en la Superintendencia de Industria y Comercio, autoridad única de competencia colombiana.
