In this episode, Evan is joined by Kathryn Hendley, the Roman Z. Livshits & Theodore W. Brazeau Professor of Law and Political Science, to discuss her roots in studying Russian law, and her work as the Director of Lawyers and Democratic Decline (LADD), a new research project at the UW-Madison School of Law, which explores how legal professionals navigate repression, uphold democratic norms, and negotiate their professional identity in times of political crisis.
