[2] In 2019, the LPE Project was officially established, expanding the blog into a nationwide network of legal scholars, practitioners, and law students, with Corinne Blalock as its first executive director.

According to Blalock, the network looks not only to challenge law and economics’ hegemony, but to reimagine the role of the courts in democratic society (beyond all forms of liberalism).

[6] The LPE Project can be also understood as a response to neoliberal and conservative intellectual infrastructure, in opposition to the groups like the Olin Foundation and the Federalist Society.

The Project also challenges popular understandings of what constitutes the economy, because these definitions imply valuations of work, people and geographies that legal theory operates on and within.

[10] In 2020–2021, the LPE Project hosted the widely attended “Law & Political Economy: Democracy Beyond Neoliberalism'' Conference as part of a deliberate effort to critically transform legal thought.
