Lyubomira’s area of research lies at the intersection of law of contract, comparative law and law and economics. She is particularly interested in contractual remedies which was the subject of her doctoral thesis. She eschews, however, the one-size-fits-all approach of mainstream law and economics and works on developing an innovative interdisciplinary methodology joining New Institutional Economics and comparative law.
Lyubomira’s research has always been driven by her special interest in comparative law. She was involved in the Common Core of European Private Law Project (http://www.common-core.org/) and contributed to the sub-project "Contractual Remedies in Europe". She has also contributed to several comparative legal guides to real estate and anti-piracy as well as participated in several comparative collaborative projects of INTA Non-Traditional Marks Committee.
Lyubomira has also developed a research interest in teaching and learning and in particular in students’ engagement strategies and the development of students’ resilience. She has published on effective feedback and developing self-regulated learners.
