2021 The Chicago/FGV International Forum in Law and Economics

Greetings from the Coase-Sandor Institute!

The Chicago/FGV International Forum in Law and Economics offers a four-week lecture series online, on “hot topics” in Law and Economics. The goal of the Forum, now in its second year, is to introduce the audience to up-to-date economic analysis of major legal and policy issues. Each topic will be presented in two original lectures, one by a leader in the field from the University of Chicago Law School faculty, and another by a distinguished FGV Law School (DIREITO RIO and DIREITO SAO PAULO) expert in Law and Economics. The Lectures will be offered on Tuesday and Thursday of each week. The Forum is open to scholars, policymakers, judges, practitioners, and advanced students.

Information and direct YouTube links to each live stream of the lectures are posted below for your convenience.
