Teoría y puesta en práctica del análisis económico del derecho colombiano

Basing its arguments on the theoretical and practical implications of Colombian law, this co-authored work is intended to contribute to existing doctrine on the economic analysis of the law - an area that has been little developed in the country. The book also demonstrates that the traditional approach, which viewed the economic analysis of the law as applicable only in common law jurisdictions, is overcome by recognizing that legal precedent is not the only context in which economic analysis may be employed as an instrument of analysis and prediction. Thus the book highlights the importance of this collection of interdisciplinary tools to those who apply or interpret the law, for those in the legislative or executive bodies who are responsible for designing public policy and legal frameworks, and for resolving conflicts that derive from dialog between the two parties to the conflict.
