Duke Law And Markets Grand Finale

I’ve blogged here a few times before about our tradition of a yearlong project dedicated to a particular (broad) topic. This year’s topic was Law & Markets, and we’ve hosted reading groups, a workshop series, and a student seminar on the topic. But May 6 is the grand finale: our Law & Markets symposium.

As was the case with the predecessor Custom & Law project, the symposium is designed to be a conversation (and subsequent volume) among our own faculty and a few colleagues from across campus or neighboring schools. The schedule is below. If you’re in the triangle area, make sure to stop by, especially for the sure to be standing room only discussion of “Contract Development In A Matching Market: The Case of Kidney Exchange” by Kim Krawiec, Wenhao Liu, & Marc Melcher, with commentary by Arti Rai.
