Law and Capitalism: Introduction

Sources to support the Brooklyn Law School course: Law and Capitalism. Under development.

We Are Developing This Guide

Our librarians developed this research guide to support the spring 2024 BLS course: Law and Capitalism in U.S. History.  We are continuing to expand Brooklyn Law School Library's collection.  When you access this guide in future, please reload this web page

Excerpt from Professor Sarah Winsberg's course syllabus:

Why and how have markets come to shape so much of American life? Legal history is a key tool in discovering and understanding the answers. Throughout U.S. history, law has been intertwined with capitalism, enabling, shaping, and enforcing its most important developments.

Research help:

  • During the fall 2025 semester, BLS librarians provide reference service Mon.-Sat., 9-5 (exceptions: federal holidays).  Feel free to email: askthelibrary@brooklaw.edu or text: 718-734-2432.
