Some studies of the "endowment effect" in behavioral economics have criticized the theoretical prediction of the Coase Theorem even in its most basic formulation. This document describes the evidence of the existence of this "anomaly" in individual decision-making in various contexts in order to determine the possible general implications of this effect in the economic analysis itself especially as an explanation for the sometimes, insuperable gap between the willingness to accept for giving a right and the correlative willingness to pay to get it, also the paper describes a contradiction with the assumption of reversibility of preferences at any dot …
How Much Does A Belief Cost?: Revisiting The Marketplace Of Ideas, Gregory Brazeal
How Much Does A Belief Cost?: Revisiting The Marketplace Of Ideas, Gregory Brazeal
Gregory Brazeal
Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. is often credited with creating the metaphor of “the marketplace of ideas,” though he did not use the exact phrase and his argument for free speech was not based on distinctively economic reasoning. Truly economic investigations of the marketplace of ideas have progressed in step with developments and trends in the law and economics literature. These investigations have tended to be one-sided, with writers focusing primarily either on the production of ideas (for example, Posner) or their consumption (for example, behavioral law and economics), without considering in depth how producers and consumers interact. This may …

This short nontechnical article reviews the Arrow Impossibility Theorem and its implications for rational democratic decisionmaking. In the 1950s, economist Kenneth J. Arrow proved that no method for producing a unique social choice involving at least three choices and three actors could satisfy four seemingly obvious constraints that are practically constitutive of democratic decisionmaking. Any such method must violate such a constraint and risks leading to disturbingly irrational results such and Condorcet cycling. I explain the theorem in plain, nonmathematical language, and discuss the history, range, and prospects of avoiding what seems like a fundamental theoretical challenge to the possibility …

En presente artículo es una síntesis de algunas ideas puntuales relacionadas con las posibles consecuencias y retos que puede tener para el derecho la asunción de algunas ideas propias de la economía conductual, tal como la aceptación relativa a que los individuos muestran en su toma de decisiones, en ocasiones, una fuerza de voluntad limitada.

This Article analyzes the development and dissemination of environmentally sound technologies that can address climate change. Climate change poses catastrophic health and security risks on a global scale. Universities, individual innovators, private firms, civil society, governments, and the United Nations can unite in the common goal to address climate change. This Article recommends means by which legal, scientific, engineering, and a host of other public and private actors can bring environmentally sound innovation into widespread use to achieve sustainable development. In particular, universities can facilitate this collaboration by fostering global innovation and diffusion networks.
