| Abstract: | Marriages and firms share many characteristics in common. Both institutions deal with a set of promises between two parties and therefore need contracts to encourage individual parties to stand by their promises and commitments. Despite these similarities, in most countries marriage laws are statutory laws that have little in common with commercial contract laws. The authors present the Chicago and neoclassical perspectives on law-and-economics, with a special emphasis on marriage laws. |
