DC area people, take note:

The Mercatus Center will host a panel on Sept 4, at 2 pm, on Edward Stringham’s new book Private Governance. RSVP here: https://mercatuscenter.wufoo.com/forms/edward-stringham-book-panel/  Bruce Benson and I will comment. I expect I’ll do a sort “What would philosophers say if they accepted Stringham’s arguments?”-type thing.
