Abstract

This article wants to conduct a comparative study between ordoliberal theory and the measures adopted by the German state in the post-World War II. Thus, analysing how this theoretical scope corroborated to remedy the political, economic and social crisis that has brought the country. In fact, the ordoliberals as theoretical thinking begins to be drafted since 1938 in the journal entitled Ordo, linked to Freiburg school, but applied more effectively only after 1945. Among its most prominent measures can highlight the guarantee of a healthy environment competition through market principles, in order not to allow the formation of monopolies and oligopolies, thus the Freiburg school stands out in normativity that arises in the role of the state and monopolies, the latter, understanding the beneficial role of state intervention and the great problem of the concentration of monopolies (SCHNYDER and SIEMS, 2012). Among the main goals for progress was the monetary reform, the end of control over production and its products, and control over monopolies, increasing population density and demand for jobs and services
