Economic Approach to Law
ECON 325 FA

This course uses economic analysis to develop a unified theory of the basic common law areas of torts, contracts, and property. It also examines the cost of using the legal system to resolve private disputes. The analysis is both positive (explaining the actual structure of the law) and normative (proposing reforms that would make the law more efficient).
