Abstract

Abstract

This essay attempts to explain Ronald Coase´s theory in a way that makes it accessible to a larger audience while retaining the "simple" and "self-evident" truths that Coase believed would revolutionize the way we think about the law and about economics. It is not clear that Coase"s theories will win the day, but by explaining them to a larger audience, it can now hopefully be a fair fight.

Keywords: Coase Theorem; social cost; Ronald Coase.

 

Resumo

Este ensaio tenta explicar a teoria de Ronald Coase de uma forma acessí­vel a um público maior, mantendo as verdades "simples" e "auto evidentes" que iriam revolucionar a maneira como pensamos sobre a lei e sobre a economia, como Coase acreditava. Não está claro se as teorias de Coase irão prevalecer, mas explicando-as para um público maior, elas têm mais chances de ganhar adeptos.

Palavras-chave: Teorema de Coase; custo social; Ronald Coase.
