Since Fall 2000, faculty members at the University of Illinois College of Law have published their recent scholarly papers online through the Legal Scholarship Network of the Social Science Research Network. More recently, faculty members have begun publishing online through Berkeley Electronic Press.
The online publication of works-in-progress and of forthcoming articles has become increasingly popular among top-flight law faculty, and the College of Law faculty is very pleased to have joined in this exciting enterprise.
Illinois Law & Economics papers published to date in this series are shown below with authors and titles. The papers are arranged based on the year they first appeared online, although some of the papers were revised in later years. Some of these papers have been published in leading journals since their posting. Please check with the author if you would like to have a reprint of the article as published.
The title link will take you to an abstract page on SSRN or BePress from which you may download the full-text paper or contact the author for a current version. If you would like to have hard copies of any of these papers mailed to you, please contact Sally Cook at (217) 333-9851 or scook@law.uiuc.edu.
