For what it’s worth, I think having it as a stand-alone session is the least-bad of two bad options.

I’m not happy that we’re in this position.

So, are you both arguing for leaving it as a stand-alone session? Just to be clear.

Thanks,

I think scheduling that panel as a stand-alone event does give it special treatment that I don’t think the panel merits on intellectual

or political grounds. However, I think doing so may well be the best choice for pragmatic reasons (it might draw a significant number

of people away from panels scheduled simultaneously).

FYI, everyone:

There has been some debate among the committee and our chair about whether to schedule the new panel, organized by Leo Panitch, in its one slot on the program.

On the one hand, there’s a case that a panel of well-known and long-standing academics might attract so many of the participants that it would compete unfairly with adjacent panels.

On the other, there’s a case that scheduling the panel as a stand-alone event privileges this one panel unfairly. It assumes that they will be of greater interest than other panels and deserve a special place on the program, an assumption that may not be correct.

I, for one, would be interested in knowing what everyone else thinks about this decision.

Hello everyone,

 

Here’s what the program committee has come up with. I did communicate with Leo Panitch and his group.  They are willing to reduce the size of their panel as we wish and, I think more importantly, recognize the time constraints generally since the issue is not simply the number and length of the opening remarks, but of ending it on time.
