David Friedman - Legal Systems Very Different from Our Own - PorcFest X
Based on a course he teaches and a forthcoming book, David Friedman discusses the characteristics of legal systems quite unlike any we've known in contemporary Western society. Examples range from historic Imperial China and Periclean Athens to modern gypsies and Amish.

David Director Friedman is an economist, physicist, legal scholar, and libertarian theorist. He is known for his writings in market anarchist theory, which is the subject of his most popular book, The Machinery of Freedom (1973). He has authored several other books and articles, including Price Theory: An Intermediate Text (1986), Law's Order: What Economics Has to Do with Law and Why It Matters (2000), Hidden Order: The Economics of Everyday Life (1996), and Future Imperfect (2008).
