Prof. Levinson presents at management, labor relations workshop

Brandeis School of Law Professor Ariana Levinson participated in several capacities at a workshop hosted by the Rutgers School of Management and Labor Relations.

The Mid-Year Fellows Workshop in Honor of Louis O. Kelso, Jan. 15-17, 2018, "provides an opportunity for scholars to present research in progress, receive mutual mentoring and feedback, work on joint research projects and publications, and meet foundation officials and publishers interested in building asset wealth for citizens," according to the school.

On Jan. 15, Levinson presented a draft of her article, “Union Co-ops and the Revival of Labor Law.”

She also discussed University of Wisconsin graduate student Laura Hanson Schlachter’s presentation of the Key Takeaways from DAWI’s National Worker Co-op Census Survey. Levinson will likely work with DAWI (Democracy at Work Institute) and a legal fellow from CUNY Law on some further legal research in spring 2018.

On Jan. 16, Levinson chaired a session on Research on Worker Cooperatives at which Craig Borowiak, associate professor and chair of political science at Haverford College; and Minsun Ji, director of New Directions in Civic Leadership, Labor, and Community Organizing Program at the University of Colorado at Denver, presented their latest research.
