This book represents a unique resource about Stewart Macaulay one
of the common law world's leading scholars of the law of contract
and of the law in action approach to the study of law. Since 1959,
he has published over 50 articles in leading journals, a number of
working papers, (with colleagues at the University of Wisconsin Law
School) a pathbreaking casebook for the teaching of the law of
contract, and (with other colleagues) equally pathbreaking
collections of materials for the teaching of the law in action or
law in context approach to the study of law. In this work Macaulay
has established himself as one of the postwar world's leading
scholars of the law of contract and of the sociology of law. His
work is an absolute reference point in both disciplines, and it has
attracted great attention elsewhere, most notably in economic
sociology, where his concept of non-contractual economic
relationships is regarded as an important theoretical innovation.
Macaulay's work has become an object of commentary in its own
right, and the proposed book is intended to assist further such
commentary by making hitherto difficult to obtain works readily
accessible. Most of Macaulay's work is now, when the leading
journals are generally available in electronic form, readily
accessible to students and researchers in universities. There are,
however, a number of interesting and in most cases important works
published in less accessible journals or works which were not
published in an electronic form, which are difficult to obtain.
This book will make them readily available, and in so doing will
make it possible in future for scholars to have Macaulay's complete
oeuvre readily to hand. Although Macaulay's work has provoked very
considerable discussion, there previously have been no overall
accounts of that work as opposed to critical engagements with
aspects of it. In this book, two additional essays by leading
commentators give accounts of Macaulay's work and provide an
introduction to, exegesis of and general evaluation of Macaulay's
work as a whole which is not to be found in the existing
literature.
