Andrew Dilts (LMU): Punishment and Inclusion: Race, Membership, and the Limits of American Liberalism. Zane Umsted (Iowa): Deterring Racial Bias in Criminal Justice Through Sentencing. Sergio Alves Jr. (UC-Berkeley): The Internet Balkanization Discourse Backfires. David Modic and Stephen E. G. Lea (Exeter): How Neurotic are Scam Victims, Really? The Big Five and Internet Scams. Keith Ingersoll (Kaplan), Edmund J. Malesky (Duke), and Sebastian M. Saiegh (UCSD): Diversity and Group Performance: Evidence from the World's Top Soccer League.

The irony and the ecstasy: Every serious G.O.P. presidential aspirant invokes the glorious era of Ronald Reagan, to which the country must return; ignore the fact that, for the likes of Paul Ryan and Rand Paul, Reagan’s actual record — from increased bureaucracy to higher deficits — should be seen as a complete failure. White Christmas and Black December: The Massacre of the Innocents reminds us that the #BlackLivesMatter movement is not truly a challenge to Christmas — it’s a return to its roots. Sex slavery “pushes ISIL victims to suicide”: Amnesty International says girls from Iraq's Yazidi minority have had their lives shattered by ISIL sexual violence.
