LPE 101: LRS

LPE101 is a series of events aimed at challenging the narratives of traditional legal education through the lens of the Law and Political Economy Project. What's LPE? In short, it's a movement in legal academia centered around the understanding that politics and the economy cannot be separated and that both are constructed by the law. This is scholarship against inequality, precarity, racial hierarchy, intersectional oppression, political alienation, ecological collapse, and social catastrophe.

During our second event of the Spring on Tuesday, March 21st at 6:30pm we'll have Oren Tamir, a Global Hauser Post-Doctor Fellow at NYU Law giving a lecture on how we can better think about progressive defenses of the regulatory state. Oren is working on a project that attempts to re-imagine the field of administrative law and to suggest how we should build administrative states around the world in a way that would put them on a stronger, much more attractive, footing (among other things as a response to various attempts to bring forth their “deconstruction” and to attack knowledge and expertise). The lecture will be followed by a Q&A with attendees.
