I am incredibly excited about the @opiniojuris symposium starting Monday, which explores how to teach international law critically in the #covid19 era. Assembled by @alattar_mohsen and @Rohini_Sen, it features 12 posts from around the world. The great Tony Anghie kicks us off!
For my next trick, I will now attempt to summarize @ole_b_peters very insightful paper in @nature :
The Ergodicity Problem in Economics
At the risk of being hyperbolic, I think it is one of the most important papers ever published in economics.
.@BuffettInst Executive Director Annelise Riles and Tim McLellan, visiting Post-Doctoral Scholar, will be presenting "The Role of Comparative Law in Anthropology" at this @asclconnect online conference.

Professor spouse is at home, recording his lecture on Brown v. Board of Ed. Overheard this gem:
"Imagine if instead of saying your final papers are due April 10, I told you to finish 'with all deliberate speed.' Now dig deep inside yourselves and ask: When would you turn it in?"

Merleau-Ponty: "every imagination is an ontology."
Deleuze: "It is imagination which crosses domains...from science to dream and back again."
Žižek: "The first step to freedom is not just to change reality to fit your dreams. It's to change the way you dream."
