Economic Analysis on Law - Dictionary of Arguments
Parisi I 13 Law/economic analysis/Miceli: A. The positive version of this approach uses economic methods to examine the law as it is. It thus addresses questions about how the law affects behavior, but often goes further to argue that the various doctrines of the common law reflect an underlying economic logic. Posner: This view, first put forward by Richard Posner(1), maintains that the goal of effciency has somehow become embedded in the law. B.Normative analysis, in contrast, asks how the law can be improved to better achieve the goal of effciency, though as noted, other norms can be incorporated into the analysis. Mainstream economic analysis of law encompasses both positive and normative analysis. >Tort law/Learned Hand, >Economic models/Miceli. 1. Posner, Richard (2003).
