Season 6, Episode 4 features the 29th Annual Frankel Lecture, “Adressing Americans.” Our keynote Frankel Lecturer was Professor Richard R.W. Brooks. Brooks is the Emilie M. Bullowa Professor of Law at the New York University School of Law and the Florence Rogatz Visiting Professor of Law and Senior Research Scholar in Law at Yale Law School. His scholarship focuses on contracts, agency, the analysis of behavior through the lens of law, economics and custom.
His commenters were Richard H. McAdams, Bernard D. Meltzer Professor of Law at the University of Chicago Law School and Helen Norton, University Distinguished Professor of Law and Rothgerber Chair in Constitutional Law at the University of Colorado School of Law.
Tune in for a fascinating and informative discussion about how the words that we use to address and refer to others influence our civil, political, and social lives.!
On behalf of the Houston Law Review, Emphasis Added would like to thank Professor Brooks, Professor McAdams, and Professor Norton for sharing their work with us. Furthermore, we are grateful to the Frankel family for their continued support in fueling the Law Center's ability to host timely and intellectual conversations on important legal issues.
