#AcademicRunPlaylist - 4/13/24

Most of the animals think it's spring (hope they're right), and the good weather today made my #AcademicRunPlaylist especially enjoyable!

First was the second day of the #COMIPinDigiMarkts2022 conference at the Maastricht University Faculty of Law. This was a day packed with great talks examining different aspects of competition, IP, and digital markets, and I particularly liked the final session on exploitative and exclusionary conduct https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MlwSwtOLtZM

Next was an excellent panel on biometric surveillance privacy at the University of California, Berkeley with John Chuang (decision making and the limits of privacy), Jennifer Urban (biometrics and privacy law), and Lawrence Cohen (biometrics in Indian population security) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8FjoLcwFmzs

Next was a fascinating panel on reactionary mathematics in 1790-1830 Naples with Massimo Mazzotti, Matthew Jones, and David Bates at the UC Berkeley Social Science Matrix https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UGzyooEg26E

Last was a thought-provoking panel on impunity and capitalism throughout history at the UC Berkeley Social Science Matrix with Trevor Jackson, William Janeway, and Anat Admati. Jackson reviews European financial crises from 1690-1830, examining the legal regulation leading up to various crashes and how improvised policy in the fallout rarely led to effective changes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-x3iAhdnsvM
