The purpose of this paper is to analyze from a law and economics perspective, two issues that have become increasingly prominent in Europe and East Asian relations. The first is that of product origin, and includes the issue of Japanese automobile “transplants” in Europe. The second is that of the European Community’s recent new legislation on “unfair” trading practices in services, which can also be seen as a type of anti-dumping policy towards services; a Korean company has been the first to suffer from this new legislation. In our paper, we focus on these two cases, one Japanese, and the other Korean, to better analyze the law and economics of future Europe-East Asian relations.

In psychiatry, the law, and economics, there are many areas of overlap where our knowledge and appreciation are growing and developing. Many doctors ‘understand the words but not the music’, and the same is true for the other professions involved. This is exemplified in relation to suicide.

Abstract In standard economic models, two basic assumptions are made: the first, that actors are rational, and the second, that actors’ preferences are a given and exogenously determined. Behavioral economics — followed by behavioral law and economics — has questioned the first assumption. This Article challenges the second one, arguing that in many instances, social welfare should be enhanced not by maximizing satisfaction of existing preferences but by changing the preferences themselves. The Article identifies seven categories of cases where the traditional objections to intentional preference change by the state and the law lose force and argues that in these cases, such a change warrants serious consideration. It then proposes four different modes of intervention in people’s preferences, varying in intensity, on the one hand, and in the identity of their addressees, on the other, and explains the relative advantages and disadvantages of each form of intervention.

In California, where I live, an affirmative consent law was recently passed: often referred to as the “yes means yes” standard for sexual assault, it is now required of all colleges receiving state funds. Supporters of the law argue that campus rapists can no longer be exonerated because their victims did not resist or were incapacitated by fear, shame, or intoxication. On the other side of the country, a student at Columbia University became an icon in this ongoing legal struggle by carrying her mattress around with her everywhere, including to her graduation, as a sign of protest against the university’s refusal to expel the male student who raped her.
