«VEHABIORAL LAW & ECONOMICS» a cargo del Dr. Martín Frúgoli

To start talking about Behavioral Law & Economics, we first need to talk about Economic Analysis of Law, because the field of Behavioral Law and Economics was, in part, a reaction to the mainstream model of Economics. The Economics Analysis of Law applies the tools of microeconomic theory to the analysis of legal rules and institutions. Economic Analysis of Law, like economic analysis in general, has been the rational choice theory. According to this theory, people are always strive to enhance their own well-being, by choosing the available option that maximizes their expected utility. Economics is the science of rational choice in our world, in which resources are limited in relation to human wants. So, again, the task of economics, so defined, is to explore the implications of assuming that man is a rational maximizer of his ends in life, his satisfactions –what we shall call his self-interest. Rational maximization should not be confused with conscious calculation. In other words, the concept of man as a rational maximizer implies that people respond to incentives. What happened? In the past few decades, hand in hand with comparable developments in economics, economic analysis of law has been challenged by a growing body of experimental and empirical studies that attest to prevalent and systematic deviations from the assumptions of economic rationality. These studies contested the assumption of thin, cognitive rationality by showing that people’s preferences often do not comply with the formal requirements of dominance, transitivity, invariance, etc. These studies also called into question the assumption of thick, motivational rationality, by highlighting the role of motivations such as fairness, envy, and altruism in people’s behavior. From a slightly different angle, experimental and empirical studies have shown that most people’s moral judgments do not fall in line with the consequentialist underpinnings of welfare economics – the normative branch of economic analysis- but are much more aligned with deontological morality. In other words, this is now Behavioral Law and Economics.

«PRiL: AN INTRODUCTION» a cargo del Dr. Alejandro Menicocci

The purpose of this class is to provide an elementary concept of private international law. In this sense, the PRiL or Conflict of Laws, as it is called in Anglo-Saxon countries, has had an extraordinary development in the United States of America, due to its federal structure and the existence of a state background legislation with the obligation of reciprocal recognition of the States of the Union.

In the second part, we will look at the different approaches and the problems that arise in a system of «flexible connections» – such as the one that characterizes the American system – in the light of one of its many emblematic cases.

Modalidad de trabajo: Ambos talleres implican una exposición en inglés por parte de prestigiosos docentes de nuestra Casa de Estudios para luego desarrollar un espacio de debate sobre los temas expuestos con preguntas y respuestas focalizando sobre vocabulario técnico jurídico en idioma INGLÉS.

Se llevará a cabo a través de la plataforma Zoom.
