By Allissa Delhagen • April 24, 2025
In this podcast, we dive into the fascinating connections between sports, labor economics, and labor law. Why do labor economists study sports? Because professional sports provide a unique, measurable environment to test core economic principles. Through the lens of sports, we also look at race and gender biases in areas like the NBA MVP vote and even NCAA tournament selections.
