Public choice theory and constitutional political economy provide the foundations of methodology for the functional school of law and economics. The findings of public choice theory, though supporting much of the traditional wisdom, pose several challenges to neoclassical law and economics. In spite of the advances of economic analysis, judges and policymakers in many situations still lack the expertise and methods for evaluating the efficiency of alternative legal rules.
The functional approach to law and economics is informed by an explicit recognition that whatever social reality we seek to explain at the aggregate level ought to be understood as the result of the choices and actions of individual human beings who pursue their goals with an independently formed understanding of the reality that surrounds them, and will be conditioned on the incentive structure in which they operate.
Courts and policymakers should therefore first inquire into the incentives and the social structure underlying a legal problem, rather than directly attempting to weigh the costs and benefits of individual rules. In this way, the functionalist approach to law and economics can extend the domain of the traditional law-and-economics inquiry to include both the study of the influence of market and nonmarket institutions (other than politics) on legal regimes, and the study of the comparative advantages of alternative sources of centralized or decentralized lawmaking in supplying efficient rules.
With this focus on the underlying legal and social structure, micromanaging individual legal and policy decisions becomes less attractive. Such micromanagement is likely to suffer from the rent-seeking activities of interested parties.Much of the intellectual foundation for this structural focus can be found in the writings of James Buchanan. He eloquently describes the constitutional political economy research program in his Nobel Prize address: “I sought to make economic sense out of the relationship between the individual and the state before proceeding to advance policy nostrums.”
Drawing on the method of constitutional political economy, the functional law-and-economics school focuses on the creation of incentive-compatible metarules
to which rational individuals would consent at the constitutional stage of decision making while they are uncertain as to how those rules will directly affect their own self-interest. This constitutional perspective was first used in economics by James Buchanan and Gordon Tullock and bears a good deal of resemblance to the “veil of ignorance” mechanism introduced by John Rawls15 around the same time. The ex ante perspective avoids the temptation to engage in micro-level social engineering because it depends on committing to rules that will be optimal in expectation, while recognizing that those rules will likely generate undesirable outcomes from time to time.
The constitutional design element of functional law and economics deviates from the Chicago school to the extent that efficient institutions are not assumed simply to evolve over time. Instead, functionalists take as their primary function the design of institutions in which individual incentives are harnessed to reach the social goals agreed upon at the constitutional stage. Recognizing that market failures limit the natural evolution of efficient legal rules, functionalists attempt to design institutions that internalize the external costs and benefits created by individual behavior in order to achieve the social goals chosen at the constitutional stage.
However, also recognizing the existence of government failure, functionalists are not willing to allow political and legal elites or majorities to align individual actions with social goals on an issue-by-issue basis. Eschewing any romantic visions of government or the courts, functionalists assume that public figures are selfinterested and will pursue their own interest, often to the detriment of the social interests that would be acceptable to all at the constitutional stage.
