This book is the first attempt to establish a collaborative and interdisciplinary field of economics and legal studies, called "Econo-Legal Studies." It encourages readers to think like economists and legal scholars as they analyze complex real-world issues, presenting stimulating discussions on the intersection of law and economics, the differences and unexpected similarities between the two perspectives, and the new insights to be gained when approaching a problem from both angles.

This groundbreaking book is a pioneering effort to establish a collaborative and interdisciplinary field of economics and legal studies. Its primary objective is to provide readers, including advanced undergraduate and graduate students, as well as fellow scholars interested in interdisciplinarity, with the tools to approach complex real-world issues from the dual lenses of economics and law. Dubbed "Econo-Legal Studies," this innovative approach seeks to integrate the perspectives and heritage of legal studies into economics, while also leveraging the views and methods of economics to enhance our understanding of law. In contrast, "law and economics" represents a one-way economic approach to law, primarily focusing on the effects of law on efficiency.

The central aim of this book is to inspire readers to think like economists and legal scholars alike as they analyze intricate real-world problems. It offers thought-provoking discussions on the intersection of law and economics, highlighting the differences and unexpected similarities between these two perspectives. By approaching a problem from both angles, readers can gain new insights and develop a holistic understanding of the issues at hand.

To facilitate this exploration, this book draws upon the extensive corpus of knowledge generated within the framework of the Econo-Legal Studies interdisciplinary program at Kobe University. It provides a comprehensive foundation for beginners in both economics and law, making it an engaging and accessible read.

In conclusion, "Econo-Legal Studies" is a transformative work that breaks down barriers and fosters interdisciplinary collaboration. By providing readers with the tools to think critically and approach problems from multiple perspectives, this book contributes to the advancement of knowledge and understanding in both economics and law. It is a must-read for scholars, students, and anyone interested in exploring the complex interplay between these two fields.
