KP Convergence in Chicago

Lynne Kiesling

For once, both erstwhile KP authors are in the same place! I've organized a research roundtable at the Searle Center on Law, Regulation, and Economic Growth at Northwestern University, and Mike's in town to attend. The event's called Energy, Technology, and Institutions, and you can read the working papers to be discussed if you are interested:

Combined Issues of Climate Policy and Energy Policy: Reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions while Meeting Increasing Global Energy Demand Daniel H. Cole, Indiana University School of Law

The Political Economy of Energy and Its Implications for Climate Change Legislation Jim Rossi, Florida State University School of Law

Beneficial Complexity: A Field Experiment in Technology, Institutions, and Institutional Change in the Electric Power Industry Lynne Kiesling, Department of Economics, Northwestern University David Chassin, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory
