The American Law and Economics Association (ALEA), a United States organization founded in 1991, is focused on the advancement of economic understanding of law, and related areas of public policy and regulation. It promotes research in law and economics. The organization's official journal is the American Law and Economics Review, established in 1999.
A growing acceptance of legal and economic perspectives by judges, practitioners, and policy-makers became evident in the creation of parallel associations in Australia,[2] Europe, Latin America, and Canada.[3]
