NOTE: I have reposted this, because there have been a number of changes and updates, including a new event, and one previously scheduled event being shifted from in-person to virtual.
I have been remiss about posting my upcoming speaking engagements this semester. As a result, I omitted to announce several that have already happened, including an Ilya vs. Ilya debate on immigration and the Constitution, with Ilya Shapiro of the Cato Institute.
Thanks to a jam-packed teaching schedule, I also have fewer talks this semester than in most others. Nonetheless, there are several events coming up, and most of them are in person! Indeed, all events listed below are in-person, unless otherwise noted.
Unless otherwise noted, all events are free and open to the public. But those at universities are subject to their rules about on-campus access during the Covid pandemic. Those rules vary and may change over time. You may wish to contact the university in question to ask about details on that front.
I will add additional events and information to this post, over time. In the meantime if your university, think tank, research institute or other similar organization would like to invite me to speak (either virtually or in person), I am open for business; particularly for the Spring 2022 semester, when I will have a much more flexible schedule.
Several of the talks below are about my recent book Free to Move (the Introduction, which includes an overview of the rest of the book, is available for free download here). But I’m more than happy to speak about other topics within my areas of expertise, as well, including federalism, property rights, political knowledge, democratic theory, and others. For a more complete list of my areas of expertise and publications, see my website.
