I will take roll on Tues and Thurs, September 19 and 21.  If you are not in at least one of those classes, I will assume that you are not taking the class and I will not assign you to a group for the "group presentations".

I have two new papers (see miscellaneous articles box).  The first is an introduction to a special issue on globalization and inequality, in the journal World Development.  The second is an article from The Economist on a shipment of toxic waste to Cote d'Ivoire.
