The principle of proportionality is currently one of the most discussed topics in the field of comparative constitutional law. Many critics claim that courts use the proportionality test as an instrument of judicial self-empowerment. Proportionality and Judicial Activism tests this hypothesis empirically; it systematically and comparatively analyses the fundamental rights jurisprudence of the Canadian Supreme Court, the German Federal Constitutional Court and the South African Constitutional Court. The book shows that the proportionality test does give judges a considerable amount of discretion. However, this analytical openness does not necessarily lead to judicial activism. Instead, judges are faced with significant institutional constraints, as a result of which all three examined courts refrain from using proportionality for purposes of judicial activism.

It is geared specifically towards those without a great deal of exposure to economic thinking and provides law students, legal scholars and practitioners with a practical toolbox to shape their writing, understanding and case preparation.The book's clear focus on economic methods poses a refreshing change to conventional textbooks in this area, which tend to focus on content-related theories. Recognizing that it is often difficult to derive adequate conclusions for legal arguments without first understanding the methodological limitations of economic studies, this book provides a comprehensive coverage of the most important economic concepts in order to bridge this gap.

Ökonomische Argumente werden auch für Juristen immer wichtiger. Dieses Lehrbuch soll Juristen mit ökonomischen Methoden vertraut machen, um ihnen ein besseres Verständnis dieser Argumente zu geben. Es richtet sich dabei sowohl an Studierende als auch an Wissenschaftler und Praktiker. Für die dritte Auflage wurde das Lehrbuch aktualisiert und punktuell überarbeitet. Die dritte Auflage des Lehrbuchs greift aktuelle Entwicklungen auf und wurde durch interne und externe Verlinkungen konsequent für die digitale Nutzung optimiert. Das eBook ist unmittelbar im Open Access verfügbar. "Da die Verzahnung rechtlicher und ökonomischer Aspekte in den meisten Lehrbüchern in der Regel viel zu kurz kommt [...], schließt es eine bedeutende Lücke in der juristischen und wirtschaftswissenschaftlichen Literatur." Studium 2017, Ausgabe 100, 20 "In Europa kursieren immer noch verschiedene Missverständnisse über die Rechtsökonomie, die wohl auch aus mangelnder Kenntnis der Methoden resultieren. Das Buch leistet somit einen Beitrag zur Aufklärung, indem es Grundkenntnisse vermittelt, über die jeder Rechtswissenschaftler verfügen sollte." Martin Gelter RabelsZ 2019, 461-464
