Sentencing Antitrust Offenders: Reconciling Economic Theory With Legal Theory, Kenneth G. Dau-Schmidt Jan 1984

Sentencing Antitrust Offenders: Reconciling Economic Theory With Legal Theory, Kenneth G. Dau-Schmidt

He presents, as an alternative, a model that accounts for benefits afforded by incarceration such as the signaling of what is a criminal offense, changes in the criminal's …


The Coase Theorem And The Psychology Of Common-Law Thought, Donald H. Gjerdingen Jan 1983

The Coase Theorem And The Psychology Of Common-Law Thought, Donald H. Gjerdingen

Articles by Maurer Faculty

The Coase Theorem is a simple proposition-in the absence of transaction costs, a Pareto optimal result will occur regardless of the initial placement of legal liability. Despite this apparent simplicity, however, Coase's economic parable has provoked intense debate in the legal community. Why does the theorem grate on the hardened intuitions of so many lawyers? The thesis of this Article is that a connection exists between the adoption or rejection of a given school of legal thought and the use of certain psychological constructs. Specifically, this Article argues that the constructs underlying the Coase Theorem are incompatible with those underlying …

Integration And Economic Development, Robert L. Birmingham Jan 1965

Integration And Economic Development, Robert L. Birmingham

Articles by Maurer Faculty

In this paper I shall attempt to evaluate the potential impact of economic association among underdeveloped countries. Attention is centered on gain achievable by participating states as a group: world welfare alteration appears devoid of normative implication to the national decision maker, while questions of internal distribution of union benefit are too complex for summary treatment. Conclusions of amalgamation efficacy rest jointly on abstract analysis and deduction from empirical economic parameters; discussion of trade and development theory is extended beyond that logically necessary for argument coherence to provide a brief introduction to relevant recent thought.
