The Future of Law and Economics Part 4: Potential Solutions

In a series of posts (Part I, Part II and Part III), I’ve sketched out how the trend toward increasing detachment in L&E scholarship might reduce the influence of the L&E movement at the retail level and become its ultimate undoing. I must say, writing this series has been a lot of fun but has ... The Future of Law and Economics Part 4: Potential Solutions

The Future of Law and Economics: Does Behavioralism Offer Hope for the Non-Technical?

Josh’s series-in-progress on the future of law and economics (Part I, Part II, Part III…and more to come) is simply fantastic. It’s also a bit depressing for those of us who are economically inclined but lack the skill set required to do sophisticated modeling and/or rigorous empirical work. Josh’s latest post (Part III) suggests there ... The Future of Law and Economics: Does Behavioralism Offer Hope for the Non-Technical?

The Future of Law and Economics Part 3: L&E Scholarship

In previous posts (Part I and Part II) I discussed the increasing trend towards formal mathematics in L&E scholarship and some of the potential issues this raises for the L&E movement as it becomes more detached from the legal academy. This post focuses on another question: What will L&E scholarship in law schools look like ... The Future of Law and Economics Part 3: L&E Scholarship

The Future of Law and Economics Part 2: Mathematics, Retailing L&E, and Detachment

In my previous post, I sketched out some trends in the Law & Economics movement in recent years. Specifically, I’ve focused on the trends towards increasing mathematical formality and specialization within economics as a stand alone discipline. The post triggered some thoughtful responses from Larry Solum and Larry Ribstein for which I am grateful. I ... The Future of Law and Economics Part 2: Mathematics, Retailing L&E, and Detachment

The Future of Law and Economics, Part 1

I’m very interested in the history, the present, and the future of the law and economics methodology and movement. Recently, I’ve been giving some thought to the direction of the movement, especially as it currently exists in the legal academy. Some of my thinking has been inspired by this post from Larry Ribstein, the comments ... The Future of Law and Economics, Part 1

Happy 94th Birthday Armen Alchian!

I wrote this brief post awhile back, and forgot to post it on April 12th, Armen’s 94th birthday.  I’m late.  But better late then never they say. On Armen Alchian’s 94th birthday, it seems appropriate to reflect on some of his contributions to economics and economic analysis of the law.  Armen has been described as ...
