What is Urban Law Today – New York, NY

The Fordham Urban Law Journal hosts “What is Urban Law Today?  A Symposium on the Field’s Past, Present, and Future in Honor of the Urban Law Journal’s 40th Anniversary” on February 28, 2013.

To celebrate the Journal’s 40 years of path-breaking scholarship, we have gathered together leading scholars across topics inspired by the Journal’s inaugural 1972 volume, including exclusionary zoning and housing in urban planning, urban environmental challenges, consumer protection in cities, and a special plenary panel where participants will discuss the broader question of “What is Urban Law”?

Attendees can find registration information here.
