Celebrating European law and economics: Three decades in a long tradition
This paper analyzes the intellectual foundations and evolution of the European Journal of Law and Economics (EJLE) over its first thirty years. We first reconstruct the European intellectual traditions underlying law and economics—Enlightenment thought, the German Historical School, ordoliberalism, and comparative institutional analysis—and their role in shaping the journal’s founding mission. We then complement this historical analysis with a co…
Law and economics in Italy: An overview
Supply-induced demand: Insights from tax litigation
Despite extensive literature focusing on the concept of supply-induced demand, there remains a notable dearth of contributions in law and economics. This paper seeks to address this gap by investigating the role of tax advisors in stimulating the demand for litigation in a specific case. To this aim, the paper analyses data from Italy concerning advisors who can push the client to litigate an allegation of the tax authority that could otherwise b…

Fake & original: The case of Japanese food in Southeast Asian countries
This paper seeks to answer two main questions: whether restaurants using a national brand to capture customers in fact use original national ingredients for producing food and, in cases where original ingredients are not used, what is the economic rationale behind this choice? Specifically, the study focuses on Japanese restaurants in three Southeast Asian countries, using a theoretical model and an empirical investigation based on interviews and…

Justice Without Romance: The History of the Economic Analyses of Judges’ Behavior, 1960–1993
Richard Posner’s “What Do Judges and Justices Maximize?” (1993b) is not, as usually believed, the first analysis of judges’ behaviors made by using the assumption that judges are rational and maximize a utility function. That analysis arrived at the end of a rather long process. This paper recounts the history of this process, from the “birth” of law and economics in the 1960s to 1993. We show that economic analyses of judges’ behavior were intro…

Big data and big techs: Understanding the value of information in platform capitalism
One of the major challenges that result from the digital transformation occurring in our societies bears on its impact on the organization and regulation of the economy. This leads to a dramatic change to the economic institutions of capitalism—into what could be defined as platform capitalism—that rests on a fundamental dilemma between ‘decentralization’ on the one side and ‘concentration’ on the other. This is the main puzzle that the emergence…

Entrepreneurship and failure: Two sides of the same coin
This paper attempts to shed light on the nexus of relationships existing between failure, bankruptcy, institutional context, and local characteristics on one hand and entrepreneurship, firm survival, and performance on the other. The aim is to provide a larger vantage point from which to read the research included in this issue with the overall ambition to contribute to a better understanding of our entrepreneurial societies and the role of failu…
Bankruptcy delay and firms’ dynamics
Retrospectives: Tragedy of the Commons after 50 Years
Garrett Hardin's "The Tragedy of the Commons" (1968) has been incredibly influential generally and within economics, and it remains important despite some historical and conceptual flaws. Hardin focused on the stress population growth inevitably placed on environmental resources. Unconstrained consumption of a shared resource-a pasture, a highway, a server-by individuals acting in rational pursuit of their self-interest can lead to congestion and…

Concurrence dans le marché de la télévision payante en Europe à l'ère de la convergence
Ce papier discute des raisons économiques qui sous-tendent l’exclusivité des contrats dans les marchés multimédia. Il montre comment les accords exclusifs dans la distribution des contenus en Europe fonctionnent comme des barrières à l’entrée et/ou des stratégies d’accroissement des coûts des concurrents pour les nouveaux opérateurs de télédiffusion payante. La suppression des clauses exclusives, récemment validée par la Commission européenne, pe…

La relation entre le cadre institutionnel et le changement technologique met en evidence la maniere dont le second determine necessairement des changements dans les secteurs de production et dans le comportement des agents economiques, rendant parfois obsoletes les institutions. De plus, les marches de…
