ECO3029 Law and Economics 3 6 Major Bachelor 2-4 Korean Yes
The field of law and economics can be shortly summarized as a systematic inquiry about three elements: law, ordinary people, and the market outcome. Specifically, the field of law and economics recognizes as the 'ordinary (rational) people all the market participants including law makers and law enforcers. Only under these presumptions, one can most precisely predict the economic effects of any law or a piece of legislation. Therefore, law and economics, among many other fields in economics, is one of the fields most seriously devoted to accurately explaining the reality as it is. This course starts with the so-called 'Coase Theorem', which is a critical proposition generally evaluated to have triggered this whole field by numerous scholars. After probing into the Coase Theorem sufficiently, the students are supposed to start investigating various economic effects of some major substantive laws, including their other properties such as fairness, justice, or equality. The major substantive laws consist of property law, accident law, contract law, and the constitution. We firstly examine the basic structures of these laws, and subsequently go through the economic properties of main doctrines within such substantive laws. Furthermore, the class also emphasizes how these doctrines are (and were) actually implemented and enforced by the ordinary people in the real world.
