Abstract
Abstract In this article, I briefly reviewed the status of the law and economics movement in Singapore. I probed three spheres to describe this status, namely, academia, teaching and judiciary. In short, law and economics is of very little influence in Singapore both intellectually and practically. However, the unpromising position of law and economics is not unique to Singapore, as substantiated by several other pieces in this volume. Therefore, a serious pondering over the underlying cause is probably warranted. Robert Cooter’s call for efforts in the third, content, enterprise of law and economics might help move law and economics closer to the center stage of legal scholarship and practice in Asia.
