AbstractThis article argues that the PSPP judgment effectively buries the era of financial liberalism, which has dominated the European economic constitution for decades. It raises the curtain on a new political paradigm, which I call “integrative liberalism”. Whereas the financial crisis put financial liberalism under strain, the development since then has been contradictory, torn between state intervention and market liberalism, focused above all on buying time rather than finding a new constitutional equilibrium. Now, together with the measures adopted in response to COVID-19, the PSPP judgment paves the way for profound change. Integrative liberalism is characterized by an overall shift from the market to the state, mitigating the post-crisis insistence on austerity and conditionality. Contrary to the embedded liberalism of the post-war era, integrative liberalism operates in a corrective and reactive mode with a focus on goals and principles, lacking the emphasis on long-term planning. Like every political paradigm, integrative liberalism ushers in a new understanding of the law. It puts the emphasis on context instead of discipline, and it elevates the proportionality principle. If integrative liberalism is to succeed, however, the democratic legitimacy of the Eurosystem and its independence require serious reconsideration.

LABURPENA: Artikulu honetan, Europar Batasuneko botere-artikulazio berriak erkidegotan osatutako Espainian zer eragin daukan aztertuko dugu. Europa mailako politika-ekonomia erlazioak funtsezko bi koordenatu izan behar ditu ezinbestean. Alde batetik, Europako konstituzio-ordena ez dela gizartearen konstituzionalismoaren koordenatuetan ernatutako ordenaren berdina. Bestetik, Europako konstituzio ekonomikoa Europa bat egiteko proiektuak berarekin dakartzan aldaketa berriak gorpuzteko eremua dela. Izan ere, funtsean, Europako konstituzio ekonomikoa plataforma ezin hobea delako boterearen artikulazioa berria nola artikulatu asmatzeko, Europa guztirako. RESUMEN: el objetivo de este artículo es analizar el impacto que tiene la nueva articulación del poder en la Unión Europea en el Estado español de las autonomías. La relación política-economía a nivel europeo debe tener en cuenta dos coordenadas fundamentales. Por una parte, la consideración del orden constitucional europeo como un orden distinto al gestado bajo las coordenadas del constitucionalismo social. Por otra, la caracterización de la constitución económica europea como ámbito de materialización de las nuevas transformaciones que incorpora el proyecto de integración europeo. Fundamentalmente, porque la constitución económica europea representa la plataforma idónea desde la que dilucidar la nueva articulación del poder desde el espacio supranacional europeo. ABSTRACT: The aim of this paper is to analyse the impact of the new articula tion of power in the European Union in the Spanish state of autonomies. The relationship between politics and economy at European level must take into consideration two fundamental coordinates. On the one hand, the Euro pean constitucional system appears as a system opposite to that of social constitutionalism. Moreover, the characterization of the European economic constitution as a field of realization of the new transformations incorporated by the European project. Specially, because this represents the ideal platform in order to analyse the new articulation of power from European supranational space.

Resumo: O presente ensaio volta-se, diante do recorrente discurso de minimização do Estado como o verdadeiro caminho para o bem-estar geral, a examinar a veracidade das proposições que têm sido frequentes em relação ao Reino da Suécia, particularmente no que tange ao modo de gestão da res publica e à passagem de um modelo econômico de Estado Providência para o de um Estado Mínimo. A verificação dessas premissas foi realizada pelo estudo da formação da Suécia enquanto Estado, bem como da distribuição dos poderes no âmbito deste, para se ingressar no tratamento dos temas econômicos por parte do ordenamento jurídico, destacados a propriedade, o trabalho, a atividade empresarial, a atuação do Estado em face do domínio econômico e os serviços públicos. Uma vez que o artigo se constrói pelo teste das proposições gerais, impõe-se a adoção do método indutivo.Palavras-chave: Constituição Econômica. Suécia. Estado Providência. Abstract: This essay intends, facing the continuous speech on reducing the State as the real way to the general welfare, to investigate the truth on propositions related to the Kingdom of Sweden, specially on what concerns the way of managing res publica and the transition from an economic model of a Welfare State to a Minimal State. These premises verification were made through the formation of Sweden as a State, as well as the distribution of powers inside it, in order to come into legal treatment of economic themes, with emphasis on property, work, business activity, State action in economic field and public utilities. Inductive method is, here, imperative, for this essay is built by testing general propositions.Keywords: Economic Constitution. Sweden. Welfare State.
