Areas of academic mentoring
I invite individuals interested in legal and economic issues, including in particular: regulatory impact assessment, the application of economic analysis of law in legislation and the law application process, banking law, and financial market regulation – as well as those intending to research law from the perspective of other areas of social knowledge: economics, sociology, philosophy, and the history of ideas. My academic interests include economic analysis of law (law & economics), jurisprudential studies, constitutional and administrative law, and legal theory and philosophy. I am interested in problems concerning the language of law, interpretation, systemic disintegration, overregulation and the juridification of life, the abuse and instrumentalisation of law, and current challenges – the proliferation of legislation, artificial intelligence, big tech, the efficiency of the judiciary, and optimal regulation of intoxicants. I am particularly committed to interdisciplinary research that combines various legal research methods and goes beyond a formal-dogmatic approach.
Experience and academic profile
I can offer support based on over a decade of academic and professional experience – including scientific research, teaching, grant-related work, international collaboration, and practice as a legal counsel and managing partner of a law firm with several dozen employees.
I am a Professor at the University of Warsaw, Head of the Department of Economic Analysis of Law, the Centre for Regulatory Impact Assessment, and the Postgraduate Studies in Legislative Issues. I have participated in conferences in England, Sweden, China, and South Africa, among other countries; I completed internships at universities in Edinburgh, Zagreb, and Melbourne; I co-founded the School of Polish Law at Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv.
In my academic work, I endeavour to utilise experience gained outside the University: as an expert for public institutions (including the NAWA Council, the Advisory Board of the Prime Minister, a permanent expert for the Sejm’s Extraordinary Committee for Constitutional Amendment, an expert for the EESC EU), and as the author of legal opinions and legislative drafts for Polish and foreign entities.
