Description: "The economic analysis of legal and regulatory issues need not be limited to the neoclassical economic approach. The experts contributing to this volume provide alternatives to the mainstream approach. They utilize a variety of heterodox legal-economic approaches to address a broad range of legal issues and demonstrate how these various approaches can lead to alternative theories and conclusions concerning the role of the law and legal intervention." "This is a valuable supplement for courses in law and economics and public policy courses offered in law schools or in undergraduate and graduate programs in business or public policy."--BOOK JACKET.
