Understanding Moral Repugnance in Markets at AEA 2017!

For those who decided to freeze themselves in Chicago over the next few days rather than attend the much more pleasant AALS venue, make sure to check out this session tomorrow morning: Understanding Moral Repugnance in Markets.  It features some great speakers (and there's me!) and discussants. 

I've copied the program below (which may or may not work, given the idiosyncrasies of typepad) but you can follow the link to the program, with papers and abstracts, here.
