Description
This book examines why laws fail and provides strategies for making laws that work. It looks at examples of failed laws and explores the reasons behind their shortcomings, drawing on insights from psychology and economics.
The author offers practical advice on how to reduce the risk of failure in legislative projects, including adopting a more structured approach to analysis and considering the importance of institutions, default outcomes, and 'stickiness' in law-making.
Helpful checklists of questions to ask and issues to consider are included, making this book a valuable resource for anyone involved in designing legislation.
