|The Volokh Conspiracy |


I'm delighted to report that Dan Greenberg will be guest-blogging this week about his new article in the John Marshall Law Review, "Regulating Glamour: A Quantitative Analysis of the Health and Safety Training of Appearance Professionals," which explains and demonstrates a new method of measuring the scope of occupational licensing. Greenberg a lawyer and former Arkansas state legislator who then went on to become a federal official—most recently, a senior policy advisor at the U.S. Department of Labor from 2017-2021, where he focused on occupational licensing and began to do some of the research that culminated in "Regulating Glamour." I much look forward to his posts here!
