The Henry G. Manne Program in Law & Economics Studies (George Mason University School of Law) presents the Twenty-Eighth Economics Institute for Law Professors to be held at The Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, CO.

There is no tuition charged for the Institutes, nor are there any room and board fees. The application deadline for each is Dec. 1, 2011.
Economics for Law Professors:
The goal of the Economics Institute for Law Professors is to help participants enhance their understanding of economics and broaden their analytical tools in order to introduce greater economic sophistication and policy relevance to their professional work. More than 640 law professors worldwide have attended the LEC’s Economics Institutes. Alumni routinely credit the Institute with providing creative insights into research and teaching, and with facilitating collegial associations.The Economics Institute is carefully designed for those who possess little or no previous formal economics education. It covers basic price theory, with emphasis on the allocative effects of alternative property rights regimes, transaction cost economics, and the application of basic economic theory to a variety of legal issues.
The Twenty-Eighth Economics Institute will accommodate up to 30 law professors. All professors must attend group meals and social events together. Classes meet for two weeks, with morning sessions daily and afternoon sessions scheduled on several days. There is no class on Sunday, July 22.
Law for Economics Professors:
The Law Institute for Economics Professors provides professors with an introduction to basic legal research methods, legal procedures and substantive areas of the law. The objective of the Institute is to help economists bring greater policy relevance to their teaching and scholarship.The Institute is primarily a course about law, not “Law & Economics”. It is carefully designed to provide academic economists with an overview of the American legal system. The course is directed to scholars with little or no previous legal education; emphasis is placed on those legal issues that are most appropriate for economic analysis.
