The Economics of Legal Relationships
About the Book Series
The long-running, prestigious ”Economics of Legal Relationships” book series published by Routledge covers the wide-ranging body of literature of both normative and positive Law and Economics. Its goal is to include a broad range of subject matters, across time and place, and inclusive of the various schools of thought that comprise the field of Law and Economics that now occupies a firm home in both economics and the law, as well as contiguous disciplines. The series includes single-authored and co-authored full-length manuscripts and edited volumes, exploring how property rights, rules, laws, regulations, and institutions and their creation/formation shape and affect social interactions and ultimately political-economic outcomes. The series also includes short-form titles (20,000-50,000 words) covering emerging areas or “hot topics.”
