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 a framework for thinking through 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 insights 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 adopt an economist's mindset while simultaneously cultivating a legal scholar's perspective when analyzing complex real-world issues. It offers thought-provoking discussions on the intersection of law and economics, highlighting the differences and unexpected similarities between these two fields. By approaching problems from both angles, readers can gain new insights and develop a more comprehensive understanding of the challenges and opportunities they face.

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 solid foundation of basic knowledge in both economics and law, making it accessible to beginners in both disciplines.

In conclusion, "Econo-Legal Studies" is a groundbreaking work that breaks down barriers and fosters collaboration between economics and legal studies. By providing readers with a comprehensive and interdisciplinary approach, this book empowers them to think critically, solve complex problems, and make informed decisions in today's rapidly changing world.
