Harvard: Judge Ginsburg Reflects on Law and Economics
The Federalist Society brought Judge Douglas H. Ginsburg of the United States Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit back to his professorial stomping ground of Pound Hall on April 2 to address a packed room of over seventy students on law and economics from a judge’s perspective.
Judge Ginsburg, seemingly in his element addressing Harvard Law students, took the opportunity to combine a history lesson with the views of a respected federal jurist as he described how the field law and economics has progressed from its earliest days at the University of Chicago Law School, his alma mater, in the 1940s through to the present day and how he thinks law and economics should affect the actions of counselors and judges.
