Abstract

The purpose of this chapter is to provide a general and cross-national economic analysis of procedural law, both civil and criminal. The presentation here emphasizes two refining perspectives that have been neglected or de-emphasized in the prior literature: (1) the property of procedural law as a substitute for as well as a complement to substantive law; and (2) the tradeoffs involved in a second dimension of subtstitution, which is between private and public enforcement. Within this framework, economic analysis is compared and contrasted with normative criteria as supplied by conventional legal dogmatics.
