Resumen

Frente al renovado debate internacional sobre la relación entre la ley de competencia y objetivos sociales y económicos más amplios, este artículo examina los fundamentos de la ley de competencia brasileña. El artículo describe la evolución de la ley en el contexto de las transformaciones más amplias del capitalismo y revela cómo las disputas legales, políticas y económicas, tanto a nivel nacional como internacional, han dado forma a su diseño e implementación. El artículo argumenta que, si bien la base de la ley de competencia brasileña moderna se puede encontrar en una Constitución progresista y en los principios que guían el orden económico hacia la promoción de la justicia sustantiva, la aplicación de la ley de competencia en Brasil se ha desvinculado gradualmente de la promoción de los derechos socioeconómicos. Este aislamiento de la práctica de competencia brasileña de preocupaciones sociopolíticas más amplias estuvo profundamente influenciado por los supuestos epistemológicos y la metodología económica de la Escuela de Chicago, que han dirigido la defensa de competencia, en los Estados Unidos y en otras jurisdicciones, hacia nociones formalistas de eficiencia.
