Law and economics
A field born at the University of Chicago Law School in the early 20th century, law and economics has transformed nearly every area of law, including constitutional law, election law, immigration law and international law. The field has grown with seminal contributions from Nobel Prize winners Ronald Coase, Gary Becker and George Stigler, as well as Judge Richard Posner, William Landes, Douglas Baird and Saul Levmore.
