The Law and Economics approach to law dominates the intellectual
discussion of nearly every doctrinal area of law in the United
States and its influence is growing steadily throughout Europe,
Asia, and South America. Numerous academics and practitioners are
working in the field with a flow of uninterrupted scholarship that
is unprecedented, as is its influence on the law. Academically
every major law school in the United States has a Law and Economics
program and the emergence of similar programs on other continents
continues to accelerate. Despite its phenomenal growth, the area is
also the target of an ongoing critique by lawyers, philosophers,
psychologists, social scientists, even economists since the late
1970s. While the critique did not seem to impede the development of
the field, it certainly has helped it to become more sophisticated,
inclusive, and mature. In this volume some of the leading scholars
working in the field, as well as a number of those critical of Law
and Economics, discuss the foundational issues from various
perspectives: philosophical, moral, epistemological,
methodological, psychological, political, legal, and social. The
philosophical and methodological assumptions of the economic
analysis of law are criticized and defended, alternatives are
proposed, old and new applications are discussed. The book is ideal
for a main or supplementary textbook in courses and seminars on
legal theory, philosophy of law, jurisprudence, and (of course) Law
and Economics.
