Legal Meaning at the Intersection of Law and Economic Rationality: A Semiotic Approach

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapterpeer-review

Abstract

This essay examines how economic rationality contributes to the construction of legal meaning within constitutional discourse. Using a semiotic perspective, it argues that economic concepts operate as signifiers shaping interpretation rather than as external constraints. The research concludes that recognizing this interaction supports an “open semiotics” of law, where constitutional meaning remains dynamic, contested, and continuously produced through interpretive practices.
