In this episode, host Gwyneth Shaw talks with UC Berkeley Law Professors Katerina Linos and Elena Chachko about their new paper in the William & Mary Law Review, “Emergency Powers for Good.” In the article and a blog post on “Lawfare,” they discuss how emergency powers — often associated with overreach and authoritarianism — can be used in legitimate and transformative ways. The piece has drawn a strong reaction, including a comment in the Yale Journal on Regulation (and a response from the authors).
“Berkeley Law Voices Carry” is a podcast hosted by Gwyneth Shaw about how the school’s faculty, students, and staff are making an impact — in California, across the country, and around the world — through pathbreaking scholarship, hands-on legal training, and advocacy.
