The article describes the papers presented at the conference 'Regulation of Medical Innovation and Pharmaceutical Markets' held at the University of Chicago, Illinois on April 20-21, 2001. The conference brought together leading economic experts on the U.S. pharmaceutical industry to discuss policy issues facing the industry. The policy focus of the conference was motivated by the fact that medical innovation and pharmaceutical markets have been subject to substantial public intervention in terms both of regulation and of fiscal subsidies and taxes. Put together, these papers illustrate the large and important set of policy questions that continue to face the regulation of this industry.

BIOPOLITICS (Sociobiology) ,POLITICAL science ,ECONOMICS ,CONFERENCES & conventions - Abstract
The papers presented at the April 1975 conference on economic analysis of political behavior in Cambridge, Massachusetts, are discussed. All of the papers focused on various aspects of the relationship between law and economics. The three papers given at session 1 were all exercises in public choice, and dealt with bureaucracy. The papers in session 2 leaned towards behaviorist political science. The third session consisted of one paper about the legal system. These papers may provide an entry in the traditional political science literature for public choice students with economic backgrounds. In sum, the conference probably performed more of a role in developing interdisciplinary work than individual papers taken individually would imply.

The article presents papers prepared for the 1966 annual Conference of the American Bankers Association and the comments on those papers invited from or offered by participants in that Conference. In some cases the papers have been extensively revised in the light of discussion and criticism at the Conference; in consequence, it has unfortunately not been possible to make absolutely sure that all comments remain relevant to the revisions of the texts to which they were originally addressed. Reasons for the choice of topics for the Conference should be reasonably self explanatory, but some comment on this subject may be helpful.

In October of 2001 the author participated in an enlightening conference at Colgate University called “ Laying Claim: (Re) Considering Artists of African Descent in the Americas,” which was organized by Mary Ann Calo and Helen Shannon. The conference and the virtual conversation that followed helped him to rethink an essay he wrote in 1994 and to consider further the resistance by many scholars in the field to the application of contemporary critical theory to African American art.He found it interesting and exciting that you utilized critical theory in your approach to African American art. It seems that many African American art historians write off discourses such as psychoanalysis, poststructuralism, queer theory, and social theory as irrelevant to black life. The author is disturbed by the focus placedon Harlem Renaissance works, while there is a tendency to negateor marginalize contemporaneous black art production.
