"Information Asymmetries and the Rights to Exclude" Podcast

On January 24, Lior Strahilevitz, Assistant Professor of Law at the
University of Chicago, presented the 2006 Ronald Coase
Lecture in Law and Economics, "Information Asymmetries
and the Rights to Exclude." The Coase Lecture is given annually
in honor of Ronald Coase, faculty member at the University of
Chicago Law School since 1964 and winner of the 1991 Nobel
Prize in Economics. The lecture in his honor is given annually by
a member of the Chicago Law School faculty and is geared towards
a first year law student's level of understanding of the discipline.

You can access the lecture as a podcast from the University of
Chicago Law School Blog. The blog's teaser should entice you:
"If you'd like to learn more about what this esoteric title has to
do with Ted Williams, the 1951 Giants, and big beefy bouncers
named Dmitri, you'll want to listen in here."
