This article distils the theory of the state that is inherent in the classics of ordo- liberalism from the 1930s and 1940s, which is a specific German variant of lib- eralism. Based on structure-and-agency conceptualizations of the state, I offer an ordoliberal state theory that is constituted by some specific characteristics regarding the concepts of authority, power, and association, as well as a number of specific characteristics concerning individuals’ interests and values, the potential for influencing state employees, and regarding the factions of the state. -

Vanberg University of Freiburg Walter Eucken Institut, Freiburg This paper is an exercise in conceptual clarification. Its purpose is to explore the contribution that constitutional economics can make to the theory of democracy. Constitutional economics as the economics of rules is concerned with the study of how the choice of rules in the social, economic and political realm affects the nature of the processes of human interaction that evolve within these rules. The theory of democracy is concerned with institutional- organizational problems of self-governing polities. The purpose of the paper is to examine some of the fundamental issues that are brought into focus by applying the perspective of constitutional economics to the rules and institutions of a democratic polity. -

Kolev Ostrom Eucken Weber Final
Antipathy for Heidelberg, Sympathy for Freiburg? Vincent Ostrom on Max Weber, Walter Eucken, and the Compound History of Order Stefan Kolev1 [For the Colloquium on November 18, I would particularly appreciate comments on Section 4, Sections 2 and 3 provide the context for Section 4.] Abstract Vincent Ostrom’s legacy is revisited in this paper along three dimensions: Ostrom’s contributions as a historian of politico-economic thought, as a complexity theorist and as an epistemologist. All three dimensions are captured from a perspective which has seldom been studied systematically before: The paper reconstructs Ostrom as a reader and interpreter of German politico-economic thought, especially of Max Weber’s theory of bureaucracy and of Walter Eucken’s theory of social and epistemic orders. The systems of these two German social scientists embody for Ostrom the two types of social order central to his own typology. By incorporating archival sources from the Vincent Ostrom Papers, including extensive correspondence with German colleagues he met during the Ostroms’ 1981/1982 stay at Bielefeld University’s Center for Interdisciplinary Research (ZiF), the paper depicts how the study of Eucken’s research program during the 1980s and 1990s constituted the final layer of Ostrom’s decades-long engagement with intellectual history. 1 Professor of Political Economy, University of Applied Sciences Zwickau and Deputy Director, Wilhelm Röpke Institute, Erfurt, Germany.

Vanberg University of Freiburg Walter Eucken Institut, Freiburg What has become known as the Freiburg School or the Ordo-liberal School was founded in the 1930s at the University of Freiburg in Germany by economist Walter Eucken (1891-1950) and two jurists, Franz Böhm (1895-1977) and Hans Großmann-Doerth (1894-1944). Freiburg University's "Fakultät für Rechts- und Staatswissenschaften" that included law as well as economics provided a conducive framework for the combination of legal and economic perspectives that is characteristic of the Freiburg School and of the Ordo-liberal tradition. As Böhm later said in retrospect, the founders of the school were united in their common concern for the question of the constitutional foundations of a free economy and society. -

This school of thought is widely perceived as the ideational source of Germany’s crisis politics which has even led to an “ordoliberalisation of Europe”. The essay questions the validity of such assessments. It focuses on two aspects which are widely neglected in current debates. One is the importance of law in the ordoliberal vision of the ordering of economy and society. The second is its cultural and religious background in particular in German Protestantism. The influence of the ordoliberal school on European law, so the essay argues, is overrated in all stages of the integration project. Anglo- American neoliberalism rather than German Ordoliberalism was in the ideational driver seat since the 1980s.
