Faculty - Law & Political Economy Colloquium October 12, 2009
October 9, 2009

Printable version
In this colloquium, students review and analyze leading scholarship from the fields of law, political science and economics that relates to the law-making processes of courts, agencies, Congress and the President. The goal is to become informed of the rich literature on law and politics, determine its relevance to legal practitioners, and evaluate its contribution to our more general understanding of law. Six leading scholars will present their work during the semester. In response, students will write reports that critically analyze the scholarship presented.

Guest speaker Professor Owens of Harvard University's Department of Government will present his paper "Strategic Bargaining on the United States Courts of Appeals."

The colloquium will take place at 4pm in RB 339.
