Cooperation Workshop

Time: Tuesdays, 4:15pm

Email List: Cooperation Workshop/Mailing list

Location: Berkman Conference Room at Harvard Law School (23 Everett Street, 2nd Floor)

The Cooperation Workshop group is a small, user-driven forum for discussing empirical research on cooperation. Several, but not all, of the participants are fellows at the Berkman Center.

Some weeks, we have seminar sessions which are public talks with an invited guests and will involve a presentation and a seminar discussion over about 75 minutes. They will be clearly marked below and advertised on a series of email lists.

Most of our sessions are workshop sessions where the basic model is that each week, one participant will distribute work for discussion and feedback from the group. Researchers are welcome to join these workshop sessions but we do ask two things of all the participants:

1. Each week some piece of writing will be shared with the group. This might be a draft of a paper, an extended abstracted or a description of a project, or a paper by someone outside of the group (e.g., a classic work) that provides important background. We expect everybody who joins the group to have read this material in advance.
2. We ask that participants, especially those that wish to present, to become regular participants and not just come once or twice.
