This contribution aims to highlight some of the aspects of MacIntyre’s approach concerning law and the political-institutional dimension. Taking into account the global theoretical framework elaborated by MacIntyre, law and politics should be regarded as levels or forms of the practical reason. More precisely, law and politics ar thought as belonging to the 'practical reason'. Starting from this conceptual horizon, this paper focuses on the following theoretical points: the MacIntyrean concept of law; his model of politics; and lastly on some aspects concerning the theoretical landscape in which he operates, with special focus on the ideas of 'tradition' and 'practical reason'.

Abstract
This contribution aims to highlight some of the aspects of MacIntyre’s approach concerning law and the political-institutional dimension. Taking into account the global theoretical framework elaborated by MacIntyre, law and politics should be regarded as levels or forms of the practical reason. More precisely, law and politics ar thought as belonging to the 'practical reason'. Starting from this conceptual horizon, this paper focuses on the following theoretical points: the MacIntyrean concept of law; his model of politics; and lastly on some aspects concerning the theoretical landscape in which he operates, with special focus on the ideas of 'tradition' and 'practical reason'.
