Aннотация:
A modern economy is an exchange economy, with individuals exchanging goods and services for mutual benefit. The legal system plays an indispensable role of providing the "rules of the road" defining how those exchanges can take place. We will discuss a number of questions, including the purposes of the legal system, and what economic theory has to say about how laws should be written and what their impact will be. As you will see during this course, economic reasoning has a profoundly important place in our legal system. Similarly, economic reasoning has a lot to say about how laws should read.
