The 71st annual Nebraska Symposium on Motivation will be April 18-19 in the Nebraska Union’s Swanson Auditorium and online.
The event is free and open to the public. Registration is available on the event website.
This year’s symposium, “Legal Judgment and the Motivation for Justice,” is organized by faculty members Richard Wiener and Dave Hansen. Speakers and presentations will examine the antecedents of the motivation for justice, describe how that motivation activates and manifests in legal institutions (such as elections, legislatures, courts, and executive offices), and trace the failure of that motivation to influence legal decision-making.
Information about speakers, the schedule, and registration is available online.
