‘Addressing everything from the basic issues of the definition of crime and the nature of public and private enforcement of law to more specialized topics such as corruption, tax evasion, environmental crime, and terrorism, Criminal Law and Economics illustrates the power of economic analysis as a tool for analyzing and designing rules and institutions. With a list of superstar contributors that includes Polinsky, Shavell, McAdams, Ulen, and Garoupa, this volume will be a major resource for scholars and students who are interested in the latest research and thinking in the law and economics of crime.’

Researchers and policymakers will want this volume on their shelves, and students of law and economics will find the readings to be invaluable.’
