This colloquium aims to put students and faculty in conversation with the best current work in legal theory. Subjects for 2012 will include cultural cognition, new governance, linguistic approaches to constitutional theory, the new originalism, and moral understandings of contract theory. Every other week, authors will present their own current work, with students and faculty engaging them in dialogue. On alternate weeks, students will prepare to discuss the papers, in part by writing and sharing reaction papers.
