What this episode covers
Professor Kornhauser is Alfred B. Engelberg Professor of Law at the New York University School of Law. He is well known for his work in law and economics. He has articulated several responses to criticism on the economic analysis of law. We discuss his views on the usefulness of economic models, and the role that legal rules play in economic analyses. The binding nature of law is also discussed. LEaP (Law, Economics and Philosophy) is a podcast series from the Centre for the Study of European Contract Law (CSECL) at the University of Amsterdam. Research by the CSECL is multidisciplinary within the general theme of European contract law; it often combines the insights from law, economics and philosophy. The LEaP podcast series offers interviews with some of the greatest thinkers in these fields today. The series aim to make current academic discourse readily available to a wide audience.
