GOMEZ ROMERO, Luis. Harry Potter v. legalism or, the republican magic of legal pluralism. Rev. Derecho Estado [online]. 2014, n.32, pp.177-204. ISSN 0122-9893.

This essay undertakes a radical criticism of legalist ideologies through a pluralist revision of the sources of law. Literary texts -specifically, the Harry Potter series of novels- are catalogued as sources of law. For this purpose, the law inscribed in fictional narrative worlds is considered as a matter that concerns the law in the real-world and the lives of audiences who read such fictional worlds. Law is literature and literature is law. On this basis, the article analyzes from a republican perspective the fictionalization of the rule of law in the Potter novels.

Palavras-chave : Law and Literature; legalism; legal pluralism; rule of law; republican freedom.
