Academic Scribblers and Defunct Economists
Three broad theoretical approaches characterize the history of development economics: state-led growth, which dominated from the 1930s until roughly 1980; liberalization theory (the ‘Washington Consensus’), which dominated in the 1980s; and institutionalism, which dominated subsequently. After 2000, development scholars increasingly focused on the legal institutions that support markets: property, contracts, and business law. This essay focuses o…
American Indian Law Codes: Pragmatic Law and Tribal Identity
The United States has recognized the power of American Indian tribes to make laws at least since 1934. Most tribes, however, did not write down many of their laws until the 1960s. Written laws have subsequently accumulated in well-organized codes, but scholars have not previously researched them. Using written materials and interviews with tribal officials, we describe the scope, motivation, and interpretation of tribal codes. With respect to sco…
Truth-Revealing Mechanisms for Courts
In trials witnesses often slant their testimony in order to advance their own interests. To obtain truthful testimony, the law relies on cross-examination under threat of prosecution for perjury. We show that perjury law is an imperfect truthrevealing mechanism. Moreover, we develop a truth-revealing mechanism for the same set of restrictions under which perjury rules operate. Under this mechanism the witness is sanctioned if a court eventually f…
Expressive Law And Economics

The Afghanistanis preferred to fight rather than join the British empire, and many social scientists are similarly disposed towards the economics empire. Like the nineteenth-century British, however, economics imperialism has succeeded remarkably. Economic models of rational behaviour have affected …
