Summary: This title was first published in 2001. Transcending the divide between the English pragmatic tradition and the circularity of American policy-based theory, Michael Whincop and Mary Keyes argue that the laws governing multistage conflicts can minimize the social costs of litigation, increase the extent of co-ordination, facilitate private ordering and limit regulatory monopolies and cross-border spillovers. Pragmatic in outlook and economic in methodology, they pursue these themes across a broad range of doctrinal issues and offer valuable links to parallel analyses in domestic contexts.
