The Law, Economics and Institutions Priority Research Area  encompasses research in both the comparative analysis of Law and Economics (within the public and the private sphere), and the study of Legal, Political and Ethical Systems.

• Institutions and values

• European Private Law and Information Society
• Fundamental Rights, Democracy and Citizenship 
• Philosophical and Aesthetical Models of Economics
• Governance and Policies in Multilingual Societies
