Students who want to write 2-credit papers in the area of Law and Political Economy, should submit proposals consisting of a 250-350 word abstract, preferably with a tentative outline. Students may also submit a cover letter. These proposals will not be binding on the final paper, as the purpose of the working group is to develop and refine the topic and focus, but they will serve to increase the likelihood of creating a writing group of sufficient intellectual coherence to provide valuable peer learning.
