Features: This book takes the issues of transformation and reform as its experiential background and reflects on the theoretical foundations of mainstream economics within the framework of intellectual history. It proposes a research program and plan for the comparative institutional analysis paradigm of law and economics, covering several cutting-edge theoretical propositions closely by the current law and economics field, such as the Coase Theorem of Politics, the Coase Theorem of Ideology, the nature of the "relationship" rules in the ternary structure of state governance, the hypothesis of the preservation and dissipation of benign social capital, and other theoretical propositions. Additionally, it addresses the theories and policies of comparative law and finance that are currently being discussed in the international academic community. The book demonstrates the author's efforts to localize Western law and economics and law and finance theories, as well as their attempts to promote or construct a comparative legal economics analysis paradigm or a realist text of law and economics that differs from mainstream theories. On the basis of theoretical analysis, the book also offers forward-looking strategic thinking and related more specific policy recommendations on current economic legislation and financial public policies or legislative choices, which can serve as references for decision-making authorities.
