Coase-Sandor Institute for Law & Economics Research Paper Series
In this paper, I address the question of the legal regulation of corporate capital. This is a topic that cuts across a number of distinct areas of law, and that displays significant differences between the civil law used in Europe and elsewhere and the U.S. common law system. It is fundamental to the regulation of important economic institutions, notably banks, securities firms, and insurance companies. It is a question as well that lies at the core of the discipline of corporate finance. Surprisingly, however, scholars have not attempted to unify these disparate strands of theory and of legal regulation in …
Understanding Changed Readings: Fidelity And Theory, Lawrence Lessig
Understanding Changed Readings: Fidelity And Theory, Lawrence Lessig
Articles
In this article, Professor Lessig proposes a theory to explain how new readings of the Constitution may maintain fidelity with past understandings of the document's meaning and purpose. After defining schematically some terminology for this exercise in "fidelity theory," the author proposes a general typology of four justifications for changed constitutional readings: amendment, synthesis, fact translation, and structural translation. Describing this last justification as so far overlooked, he illustrates, by way of four historical case studies, how structural translation results from a pragmatic institutional response by judges to subtle changes in interpretive context-changes both in what Professor Lessig calls the …
The Law And Economics Of Contract Damages, Douglas G. Baird
The Law And Economics Of Contract Damages, Douglas G. Baird
Coase-Sandor Institute for Law & Economics Research Paper Series
Those of us who study contracts tend to forget that most people keep the promises they make. Contract law matters because of the way it affects the behavior of everyone who enters into a contract, not just those who end up in court. In this talk, I want to show that law and economics is useful for exactly this reason. It helps us to identify the effects that legal rules have on behavior.

What The Civil Rights Movement Was And Wasn't, Cass R. Sunstein
What The Civil Rights Movement Was And Wasn't, Cass R. Sunstein
Articles
In this David C. Baum Memorial Lecture on Civil Liberties and Civil Rights, Professor Sunstein begins by noting that participants in the civil rights movement were often backward looking and even conservative, invoking commitments from the nation's past and arguing against reliance on the judiciary and the Supreme Court. They stressed above all two time-honored liberal principles: freedom from desperate conditions and opposition to caste. It is wrong to say (as many now do) that the movement was founded on a principle of race neutrality, and also wrong to say (as some now do) that the movement was opposed to …
Remedies When Contracts Lack Consent: Autonomy And Institutional Competence, Richard Craswell
Remedies When Contracts Lack Consent: Autonomy And Institutional Competence, Richard Craswell
Articles
Autonomy-based theories hold that enforceable contracts require the knowing and voluntary consent of the parties. In defining "knowing" and "voluntary," however, autonomy theorists have paid little attention to the remedy that will be granted if consent is round to be lacking, or to the question of what obligations (if any) will be enforced in place of the unconsented-to contract. In this paper, I expand on Michael Trebilcock's argument that considerations of institutional competence-specifically, the relative ability of courts and private actors to craft acceptable substitute obligations-should sometimes play a key role in defining what counts as "knowing" and "voluntary" consent.
