The project investigates how the institutional context of developing countries has changed basic elements of the legal dogma of central institutions in the modern economy, such as contract law and corporate law, among other fields. Specifically, it examines to what extent the higher inequality observed in developing countries and deficiencies in state capacity change the structure and functioning of essential legal institutions, a phenomenon that has been neglected by the literature on law and development.
