Is Land Special?, Eduardo Peñalver Jan 2004

Is Land Special?, Eduardo Peñalver

Articles

This article critiques the Court's attempt to cabin the Lucas "per se" takings rule by limiting it to real property. It argues that the distinction between real and personal property cannot be justified by history or the differing expectations of property owners. It then applies five theoretical frameworks (libertarian, personhood, utilitarian, public choice, and Thomistic-Aristotelian natural law) and finds that none of them supports the jurisprudential distinction between real and personal property. As a result, the article argues that "because the distinction between personal and real property is an unprincipled one, it cannot save the Court from the unpalatable implications …

Optimal War And Jus Ad Bellum, Eric A. Posner, Alan O. Sykes Jan 2004

Optimal War And Jus Ad Bellum, Eric A. Posner, Alan O. Sykes

Articles

The laws of war forbid states to use force against each other except in self-defense or with the authorization of the United Nations Security Council. Self-defense is usually understood to mean self-defense against an imminent threat. We model the decisions of states to use force against "rogue" states and argue that under certain conditions, it may be proper to expand the self-defense exception to preemptive self-defense. We also consider related issues such as humanitarian intervention, collective security, and the role of the Security Council.

Transaction Costs And Antitrust Concerns In The Licensing Of Intellectual Property, Richard A. Posner Jan 2004

Transaction Costs And Antitrust Concerns In The Licensing Of Intellectual Property, Richard A. Posner

Articles

High transaction costs incurred in the licensing of intellectual property create a pressure on legal principles ranging from the fair use doctrine of copyright law to the tying doctrine in antitrust law. It appears, with some exceptions, that antitrust law is imposing excessive restrictions on the licensing of intellectual property. The effect of these restrictions, combined with the high transaction costs inherent in the licensing of intellectual property, is to prevent the maximally efficient allocation of IP resources.


The Law And Economics Of Contract Interpretation, Richard A. Posner Jan 2004

The Law And Economics Of Contract Interpretation, Richard A. Posner

Articles

Contract interpretation is an understudied topic in the economic analysis of contract law. This Article combines simple formal analysis of the tradeoffs involved in interpretation with applications to the principal doctrines of contract interpretation, including the 'four corners" rule, mutual mistake, contra proferentum, and what I call the (informal but very important) rule of "extrinsic nonevidence." Gap filling is distinguished, and the relativity of interpretive doctrines to the interpretive medium-jurors, arbitrators, and judges in different kinds of judicial systems-is emphasized.
