Description
The use of concepts of economics as a means of evaluating the appropriateness of legal rules. The concepts drawn from microeconomic theory and public economics (dealt with at a comparatively elementary level) are used to analyse existing and hypothetical legal rules within selected areas of law, such as property, tort, contract, constitutional law, environmental law, trade practices and business regulation, consumer protection and crime. Prior training in economics is not essential for students taking the course.
