Mission and programs · 2022

• The Journal of Law and Political Economy (JLPE), an online peer-reviewed publication of the University of Californias E-Scholarship platform, is now established as a major source of interdisciplinary scholarship on law and political economy. In 2022, JLPE published three issues: a special issue on Racial Capitalism and Law; a special issue on the Law, Philosophy, and Economics of Unequal Workplace Power; and a general issue featuring articles from perspectives of sociology, economics, human rights ,and legal history as well as book reviews. In addition, the JLPE launched a 5-year collaboration with the University of California, Berkeley Law School, which will host the JLPE and involve students and faculty in its work.

• In 2022, after a two-year pandemic pause, ClassCrits revived its in-person conference tradition with our biggest ever event, Unlocking Race and Class for Just Transitions, hosted and co-sponsored by Thurgood Marshall School of Law in Houston, Texas. The conference was also co-sponsored by the activist group Taproot Earth, and also by the Just Transitions Lawyering Institute and the Equation Campaign, allowing us to reduce the costs of attending for newer scholars and others. It featured over 120 participants, and 30 panels of speakers, and also included an environmental justice tour of Houston led by a local activist group, T.E.J.A.S., a writing workshop, and a works in progress session for 19 emerging scholars to present their projects.

Those included a discussion of Constitutional law and poverty; a book discussion of Ezra Rossers A Nation Within: Navajo Land Economic Development; a book symposium on Rafia Zakarias Against White Feminism, a discussion of critical tax scholarship; and a discussion of Derrick Bell, Racism, and Well-Being.
