One being a general virtue of Law and Economics, namely the unique combination of practical concerns with scholarzy analytical work. The second and more peculiar being the impressing level and scope which the Economic Analysis of Law has reached in Poland. However, as the Yearbook also demonstrates, contributors from outside Poland have already taken the opportunity to utilize it as a platform for the presentation of scholarly work. It’s truly worth reading!” Prof. Wolfgang Weigel, Joseph von Sonnenfels Center for the Study of Public Law and Economics, University of Vienna Polish Yearbook of Law & Economics Vol. 3 (2012) contains papers by scholars both from various Polish universities and from abroad.
