About the Workshop
The Berkeley/Texas/Toronto/Yale Private Law Junior Faculty Forum (BETTY) is a new platform dedicated to fostering an in-depth exchange of ideas on the conceptual and normative foundations of private law. It aims to build an engaged community of private law scholars, with a particular emphasis on strengthening connections between junior and senior professors. We are currently seeking submissions for this meeting. Eight junior scholars will be selected through a blind review process to present their work at the Forum. A senior faculty member will provide commentary on each paper, followed by the author’s response and an open Q&A session. Here is the call for papers.
