SUMMARY:Public Policy:  Sarah Labowitz -When Disaster Strikes: The Future of FEMA & Federal Response
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Crested Butte Public Policy Forum\nSarah Labowitz is a leading expert on disaster response and the intersection of public policy and global supply chains. As a senior fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace\, she focuses on how governments and international institutions prepare for\, respond to\, and recover from large-scale crises—from natural disasters to complex emergencies. Her work examines how breakdowns in logistics\, infrastructure\, and governance shape the effectiveness of disaster relief\, with an emphasis on improving coordination\, transparency\, and accountability in high-stakes response efforts. \nEarlier in her career\, Labowitz served in senior roles at the U.S. Department of State\, where she worked on international economic policy and labor rights. She was the co-founder of NYU’s Stern Center for Business and Human Rights and she previously served as the Policy Director of the ACLU Texas. Across her research and public engagement\, she brings a multidisciplinary lens to disaster response—bridging policy\, finance\, and operations to better understand how systems can fail in moments of crisis and how they can be strengthened to save lives. Her work offers timely insights into how governments and institutions can build more resilient\, effective responses in an era of increasingly frequent and severe disasters.

SUMMARY:Public Policy:  Lawrence Lessing - Oligarchy & Political Power
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Crested Butte Public Policy Forum\nLawrence Lessig is the Roy L. Furman Professor of Law and Leadership at Harvard Law School. Prior to returning to Harvard\, he taught at Stanford Law School\, where he founded the Center for Internet and Society\, and at the University of Chicago. He clerked for Judge Richard Posner on the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals and Justice Antonin Scalia on the United States Supreme Court. \nLessig is the founder of Equal Citizens and a founding board member of Creative Commons\, and serves on the Scientific Board of AXA Research Fund. A member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and the American Philosophical Society\, he has received numerous awards including a Webby\, the Free Software Foundation’s Freedom Award\, Scientific American 50 Award\, and Fastcase 50 Award. \nOnce cited by The New Yorker as “the most important thinker on intellectual property in the Internet era\,” Lessig has turned his focus from law and technology to “institutional corruption”—relationships which\, while legal\, weaken public trust in an institution—especially as that affects democracy. \nHis books are: They Don’t Represent Us: Reclaiming Our Democracy (November 2019)\, Fidelity & Constraint: How the Supreme Court Has Read the American Constitution (May 2019)\, America\, Compromised (2018)\, Republic\, Lost v2 (2015)\, The USA is Lesterland (2014)\, One Way Forward (2012)\, Republic\, Lost: How Money Corrupts Congress—and a Plan to Stop It (2011)\, Remix: Making Art and Commerce Thrive in the Hybrid Economy (2008)\, Code v2 (2006)\, Free Culture (2004)\, The Future of Ideas (2001)\, and Code and Other Laws of Cyberspace (1999). \nLessig holds a BA in economics and a BS in management from the University of Pennsylvania\, an MA in philosophy from Cambridge University\, and a JD from Yale.
