Legal View on the Signs and Terms of the Capitalist Logic Triumph in Building a Society

The question, that the author posts, is what lawyers (namely legal theorists), should do with “capitalism”. Moreover, he wonders whether they competent to post that question at all. Some of economic solutions sound as definitely legal: unity of the economic system (the idea of being united within some society); natural figures as the indicators of growth instead of values and prices; legal obstacles over the process broad money creation by commercial banks. In this regard, they could try to discover some “legal” principles underlying economic system. Therefore, this essay is an attempt to “deconstruct” or to propose that some economic notions are the emanations of the mere legal thinking, not the emanations of capitalism
