Biased Trials Insights from Behavioral Law and Economics

Ökonomische Analyse des Rechts | Economic Analysis of Law Series Editors Stefan Voigt, Hamburg, Germany Luigi Franzoni, Bologna, Italy Georg Ringe, Hamburg, Germany Elena Reznichenko, Rotterdam, The Netherlands Michael Faure, Rotterdam, The Netherlands

Die ökonomische Analyse des Rechts untersucht Rechtsnormen auf ihre gesellschaftlichen Folgewirkungen und bedient sich dabei des methodischen Instrumentariums der Wirtschaftswissenschaften. Sie ist ein interdisziplinäres Forschungsgebiet, in dem sowohl Rechtswissenschaftler als auch Wirtschaftswissenschaftler tätig sind und das zu wesentlichen neuen Erkenntnissen über Funktion und Wirkungen von Rechtsnormen geführt hat. Die Schriftenreihe enthält Monographien zu verschiedenen Rechtsgebieten und Rechtsentwicklungen. Die Buchreihe wird als Fortsetzung der Reihe „Ökonomische Analyse des Rechts“ geführt. The economic analysis of law examines legal norms drawing on the economic approach. The analysis does not only include the consequences of legal norms but also the determinants of their emergence. It is an interdisciplinary research program in which both lawyers as well as economists are active. Over the last half century, some of its contributions have lead to important insights regarding the emergence, the functioning, as well as the effects of legal norms. This series is a forum for contributions to the economic analysis of law broadly conceived. The book series is a continuation of the series Economic Analysis of Law.
