Course Description
This reading group will focus on the jurisprudential foundations of the economic analysis to law. Law and economics is probably the most common used approach to private law. In the reading sessions, we will discuss how law and economics became so influential, what are its philosophical underpinnings and what is the future for law and economics. In particular, we will guide students to understand that law and economics cannot be a general normative theory of the law as originally postulated, but can be used only for positive and local analysis.
