DESCRIPTION: Joined by the insight that the "the economy" cannot be separated from questions of power, distribution, and democracy, a growing group of legal scholars has begun to center questions of law and political economy ("LPE") as part of a critical transformation in legal thought. LPE frameworks highlight law's role in the perpetuation of racial and gender injustice, the devaluation of social and ecological reproduction, and the violence of the carceral state under capitalism. The LPE approach also explores concrete legal reforms designed to move beyond neoliberalism and toward a genuinely responsive, egalitarian democracy, with critical attention to the need for power and movement-building as part of any such transformation.\nACS is pleased to partner with the LPE Project in hosting an online course introducing students to Law & Political Economy analysis. Join us for the first of two conversations:&nbsp;\nThe Law of the Platform Economy: Antitrust, Labor, & Contracts\nOpening Remarks:\nRuss Feingold, ACS President\nFeatured Speaker:\nSanjukta Paul, Assistant Professor of Law, Romano Stancroff Research Scholar, Wayne State University School of Law\n\nWith Commentary From:\nAmy Kapczynski, Professor of Law, Yale Law School\n\n\nSave the date for our next conversation on April 9, 2021&nbsp;at 4:00PM ET where we will host a conversation on&nbsp;Law, Money & Banking.&nbsp;Click here to read more about our next conversation and to register.\nAs the nation's leading progressive legal organization, ACS is committed to ensuring that all aspects of our events are accessible and enjoyable for all.
