2023 Brigham-Kanner Property Rights Conference (Oct. 26-27, 2023)

This week is what we call Brigham-Kanner week here at William and Mary Law School. The week culminates in the Thursday presentation of the Brigham-Kanner Property Rights Prize to lawprof Greg Alexander, followed on Friday by the Conference presentations (see below).

And earlier in the week, we're having a series of law student-oriented programs, featuring sessions on "Careers in Dirt Law," "Comparative Property Rights" (feat. Toronto expropriation lawyer Shane Rayman), and "Property Rights Practice Perspective" (feat. several young lawyers -- including W&M Law alums -- who are now practicing eminent domain and takings law).

Here's the full B-K Conference program.

The Friday program includes some very intriguing topics:

• Property and Propriety (or the Well-Ordered Society): A Tribute to Gregory S. Alexander
• Equity’s Role in Defining Property Rights*
• Emerging Issues Roundtable
• The Restatement’s Impact on Property Rights
• The Scalability of Property Rights - the Extent to Which Interests in Property Are or Should be Constitutionally Protected
  

* we're speaking at this session along with Prof. Henry Smith (Harvard), Prof. Samuel Bray (Notre Dame), and Timothy Sandefur (Goldwater Institute).
