| dc.description | The idea that institutions matter—and in particular, legal institutions— has attracted a large following among academics and policymakers alike. Among economists, it has also provoked a highly technical and at times acerbic debate over such questions as the relative value of common and civil law. But to date, the new consensus has not generated much in the way of practical advice. It tells policymakers that law is important, but it is virtually silent on what they should do. With this book, Ken Dam steps confidently and constructively into the breach. It is difficult to imagine anyone better qualified to do so. A lifelong student of comparative law and a pioneer in the field of law and economics, he has served three presidents. He occupied key posts at the Office of Management and Budget and at the White House and served as deputy secretary in both the State and the Treasury Departments, which makes his résumé just about the perfect one for a master of geo-economics. | - |
