| Resumo: | The article analyzes the work of Carl Schmitt and its influence on German ordoliberalism. This reading key enable us to understand the causes of the crisis of modern institutions and the authoritarian liberalism, including as a source of neoliberal governmentality. The research hypothesis indicates that Schmittian work allows privileged access to the understanding of authoritarian trends as the expression of the exhaustion of modern politics, the rejection of the democracy and the relations between liberalism and political theology. After all, if the economy presupposes an order, this would be a political decision or form, not an economic product. In the first part, it presents the concept of the political as an attempt to achieve Ordnungspolitik in opposition to the absence of a political form; therefore, of authority. In the second part, it evaluates the proposal of the Total State as the result of the transformations of liberalism and the intensification of the political in the age of technique. The conclusion interprets the orderly impulse of ordoliberalism in an attempt to provide an institutional framework to produce and warranty competition through a strong State and illuminates some ambiguities in the relationship between market and State until its neoliberal drift. |
