Abstract

This entry reviews experimental economics research relevant to law and economics. The introduction includes a brief discussion of experimental methodology and a survey of the categories of experiments relevant to law and economics, with citations to other reviews and compilations. The entry then reviews two series of economics experiments particularly important to law: those relating to the Coase theorem and those relating to pre-trial bargaining and settlement.
