The Neoliberalism and the Crisis of Critical Legal Studies

Abstract

The objective of this paper is to analyze the factors that led to the decline of Critical Legal Studies from the 1990s. At first, we will analyze the emergence of critical theories of Law in the 1960s. We will then investigate the emergence of postmodern legal movements, placing Critical Legal Studies in this process. Finally, we will evaluate the impact of neoliberalism on the work of Critical Legal Studies.

Keywords:
