My guests today are my UVA Law colleague, Mike Gilbert, and University of Alabama Professor, Yonathan Arbel. We’re discussing their paper, Truth Bounties: A Market Solution to Fake News, forthcoming in the University of North Carolina Law Review.  Mike Gilbert is the vice dean and a Professor of Law at the University of Virginia School of Law. He teaches courses on election law, legislation, and law and economics, and his current research focuses on misinformation, corruption, and the role of “prosocial” preferences such as empathy in law.  Yonathan Arbel is an Associate Professor of Law at the University of Alabama School of Law. His work focuses on commercial, consumer, and private law; and his methodology combines doctrinal, economic, and socio-legal analysis.  Further Reading:Truth Bounties: A Market Solution to Fake NewsSlicing Defamation by Contract by Yonathan ArbelHow Do You Stop Fake News?

Truth Bounties with Mike Gilbert and Yonathan Arbel

Yonathan Arbel, assistant professor of law at the University of Alabama, joins the Business Scholarship Podcast to discuss his forthcoming article Payday. In this article, Arbel asks why workers wait weeks to receive their earned wages and offers an historical and structural account for the rise of the modern payday. He explains why the payday has the perverse effect of making workers short-term creditors to their employers. To avoid this effect, Arbel discusses means for transitioning from the payday to daily pay. This episode is hosted by Andrew Jennings, a teaching fellow and lecturer in law at Stanford Law School.

Ep.59 – Yonathan Arbel on Payday

In this episode, Yonathan Arbel, Assistant Professor of Law at the University of Alabama School of Law, and Roy Shapira, Associate Professor at IDC Herzliya in Israel, discuss their article "Theory of the Nudnik: The Future of Consumer Activism and What We Can Do to Stop It," which will be published in the Vanderbilt Law Review. They begin by explaining what makes someone a "nudnik," and why nudniks are different from other kinds of consumers. They present a "theory of the nudnik," which explains why nudniks may be particularly good at representing consumer interests. They observe that technology now makes it easier for sellers to avoid nudnik consumers. And they argue that policymakers should encourage nudniks.
