Official Source Note

Harvard Law School lists Spamann as a corporate-law and law-and-economics scholar. His work is closely associated with empirical comparative law, legal measurement, and reassessment of law-and-finance indices.

Spamann is included to mark a methodological checkpoint: comparative legal data, coding design, index validity, and empirical measurement matter before legal-origin or investor-protection claims can be used responsibly.
