Sommario/riassunto

This synthesis of law, philosophy and market theory provides a new jurisprudence of exchange. It presents a fundamental critique of the traditional economic analysis of law and an alternative approach



through semiotic analysis, examining the market exchange process through the broader perspective of creativity and human relationships.
