title = "Rise and Peak of Peruvian Law and Economics",
abstract = "The chapter provides an overview of the introduction and development of the Law and Economics (L\&E) approach in Peru. To this end, it outlines a periodization of its evolution based on four major phases: the initial attempts, the boiling period, the peak, and the subsequent stabilization. Criticisms directed at Peruvian proponents of L\&E are then presented and analyzed. This analysis closely follows a book authored by Castillo Freyre and V{\'a}squez Kunze, which stands as the most systematic critical examination of Peruvian L\&E to date. Finally, the chapter offers a balance of perspectives and identifies future directions for the approach{\textquoteright}s development.",
