Conceptual foundations: a bird’s-eye view

Jonathan Baron and Tess Wilkinson-Ryan

Chapter 1 in Research Handbook on Behavioral Law and Economics, 2018, pp 19-44 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Baron and Wilkinson-Ryan outline the conceptual foundations of behavioral law and economics. The authors concentrate on the behavioral concepts imported into the field from psychology and experimental economics, and survey the normative models, descriptive theories, and prescriptive approaches featured in behavioral law and economics research. They endeavor to point out common themes in the research in an effort to tie together various groups of findings and counter the criticism that the field lacks the cohesion of standard law and economics.
