Abstract
The author identifies the need to bridge the gap between law and economic development as the urgent and vital concern given the duplicitous environment found in a democracy that seeks to achieve socio-economic progress but to still follow a market economy. The author argues that equality and efficacy do not go together and hence necessitates the interaction of laws (especially fiscal and economic) and economic thinking and policies. The author concludes that the study of law without the knowledge of other related social sciences is incomplete; and in any law curriculum, the study of Economics and Law and their interaction is increasingly found necessary.
