Abstract: From a critical empiricist perspective, situated in the field of General Theory of Law, the research seeks to understand what are the contributions of the Economic Analysis of Law (EAL) for the Science of Law. The paper is divided into four parts: the first presents a sympathy to the EAL for its oncoming to the empiricist approach; in the second, the author opposes the EAL's conception of science, since it is not intended to describe, but to prescribe; in the third part, the author questions the validity of the reconstruction proposed by the EAL, which aims to replace legal dogmatics by economic criteria to guide the judicial decision, thus indicating its ideological and non-scientific character; in the fourth and last part, there is a possible use of the EAL, but it goes beyond it - to understand how the economic discourse has become effective in the production of law.
