Comparative Law and Economics

Edited by Theodore Eisenberg and Giovanni Ramello ()

in Books from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Contemporary law and economics has greatly expanded its scope of inquiry as well as its sphere of influence. The extension to many idiosyncratic topics and issues that sometime lie outside the traditional domain of the discipline have fostered the emergence of a new consciousness better grasped by a comparative approach. The original contributions to this Research Handbook provide a glimpse of the new perspectives that enrich the law and economics methodology.
