… 5th International Seminar on Law and Economics Held in Beijing) Call for Papers 1. Organizers This will be a seminar jointly organized by the School of Law and Economics at the China University of Political Science and Law (CUPL), in collaboration with the Maastricht European Institute for Transnational Legal Research (METRO). 2. Date and Venue The seminar will be held at the Haidian Campus of CUPL, Beijing, and the provisional date for the seminar is Friday, 2 June, 2017, the entire day. 3. Goal The goal of the seminar is to explore the relationship between law and finance in both developed countries and developing countries, particularly the United States, the European Union, and China, with special attention to the new development in theory and practice after the financial crisis of 2008. The financial system is praised as “the brain of the economy” by Mishkin. In the absence of a financial system, it is hard or even impossible to transfer idle funds to more efficient uses; new ideas, innovative products, and productive investments will therefore have to be abandoned, and the society will in turn be trapped into status quo. Financial markets, however, cannot function well without the support of a well designed and effectively operating regulatory regime, which can be relied on to correct market failures, reduce transaction costs, and avoid systemic risks. The financial crisis of 2008 has not only …

… the consequences of this process, have as yet been identified. Acknowledging the pluralistic character of the driving forces and its consequences is an essential step in describing the phenomenon. From a conceptual perspective, this implies that one cannot grasp the full extent of globalisation by looking at it only from one perspective. However, one can more or less consciously choose to ignore other dimensions. Taking a truly global or holistic perspective on globalisation by acknowledging its … and co-evolving and should therefore not be analysed in isolation. Several scholars who follow Scholte’s definition of globalisation as supra-territoriality regard it as a single process that takes place only at the global scale. Accordingly, they argue that it should be conceptually differentiated from other concepts, such as internationalisation, liberalisation and universalisation (Caselli, 2012; Dreher, Gaston, Martens, & Van Boxem, 2010; Lombaerde & Lapadre, 2008; Scholte, 2005, 2008). … scholars would make, and already have made, different choices for their own reasons, as the variety of existing indices shows. Where one researcher may decide to include a particular domain/indicator or not, another might make the opposite choice, with arguments which may be equally valid; the same holds for the calculation method, as is explained below. The choices reflect a person´s perception of what he or she thinks are the most important aspects. The choice is also subject to data …

… Project title: How to measure choice behaviour?

In the event of simple decision tasks, random utility theory is a good approximation of the decision process. Here is an example of a partial profile task of 4 hypothetical medications or drugs where respondents have to choose the profile they prefer given that only 3 out of 5 attributes, indicated in yellow, are varying between the profiles. The other 2 attributes have overlapping levels: Drug 1 Drug 2 Drug 3 Drug 4 Gel Cream Oil Lotion / solution Storage in refrigerator Storage in … https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=XQ9I7fAAAAAJ&hl=en mailto:t.vanderzanden@maastrichtuniversity.nl https://www.tomvanderzanden.nl/ mailto:yicheng.mao@maastrichtuniversity.nl In contrast to considering all profiles in a choice task, respondents can also use non- compensatory heuristics by screening a choice set and ignoring certain profiles based on their attribute levels. Current research has shown that proper designs for non- compensatory choice models such as screening-rule based choice …
