Michael Ilg serves as an Associate Professor at the Faculty of Law, University of Calgary, where he teaches Contracts, Law and Economics, and Remedies. Previously, he held an Assistant Professor position at the University of Saskatchewan College of Law and has taught in the comparative law LL.M. program at the University of Lausanne, Switzerland. His contact details include email mpilg@ucalgary.ca and office phone 403.220.6479.
His academic credentials feature:
- PhD, University of British Columbia (2008)
- LLM, Queen's University (2003)
- JD, Queen's University (2002)
- BA in Political Science, Queen's University (1999)
Professor Ilg's research centers on Law and Economics, with significant contributions to Legal Theory, Contract Law, Freedom of Expression, and Constitutional Theory. His work critically examines corporate law, securities regulation, environmental law, and intellectual property through economic lenses, emphasizing institutional design and human behavior. Recent scholarship increasingly explores constitutional interpretation and the boundaries of offensive expression.
Analysis of his 15 most recent publications (2024-2010) reveals evolving thematic trajectories: early work focused on development law and patent systems, while recent outputs prioritize constitutional theory—particularly academic freedom and expression regulation—with consistent application of economic reasoning. His 2024 conference papers signal a decisive turn toward First Amendment jurisprudence and institutional autonomy within constitutional frameworks.
