Welcoming Larry Ribstein to the KM Blogwatch

We are delighted today to welcome Professor Larry Ribstein to the Knowledge Mosaic Blogwatch. Professor Ribstein occupies the Mildred van Voorhis Jones Chair at the University of Illinois College of Law, and is currently Visiting Professor of Law at the New York University School of Law.

Professor Ribstein is widely regarded as the leading authority on partnership law, and is the author of treatises on limited liability companies, partnership law, limited liability partnerships, and business associations. He also is the co-author of The Sarbanes-Oxley Debacle and The Constitution and the Corporation, and more than 100 published articles on corporate, securities, partnership, constitutional, and bankruptcy law.

Professor Ribstein's popular Ideoblog displays his wide-ranging and protean mind, mordant wit, trenchant analysis, and unvarnished commitment to economic analysis as the appropriate underpinning for the theory and practice of the law.

Professor Ribstein is an iconoclastic, no-holds-barred thinker and essayist. We welcome both the punch and playfulness he will bring to the KM Blogwatch and look forward to the intellectual energy his posts will engender.
