Thanks to all (especially the *five* first-years!) who came out last week to welcome Paul Staniland to Chicago.

Join us next week for UC Berkeley Ph.D. candidate Jordan Gans-Morse as he presents his paper “The Evolution of Russian Business Conflicts and Demand for Law.” CIR student Swati Srivastava will be our discussant!

The paper will be sent out over email today (Friday), Monday, and Wednesday. Hope to see you all there!
