Podcast appearances and mentions of naomi cahn

Growing evidence links heavy social‑media use to rising anxiety, bullying, and sextortion among kids, and state lawmakers are racing to respond. In this interview, Harvard Law School's Leah Plunkett—reporter for the Uniform Law Commission's child‑influencer act—and University of Virginia family‑law scholar Naomi Cahn examine how new statutes seek to verify age, require parental consent, and redesign feeds to curb addictive features.Plunkett and Cahn compare Florida's and Utah's sweeping under‑14 account bans with New York's pending “SAFE for Kids Act,” explore design mandates such as late‑night notification curfews, and explain why long‑standing COPPA rules leave teens largely unprotected. They unpack First Amendment and privacy challenges already moving through the courts, highlight emerging “digital Coogan” laws that safeguard child‑creator earnings, and note international moves—from Australia's proposed under‑16 ban to the U.K.'s Age‑Appropriate Design Code.(Credits: General 1.5 hrs | MCLE available to TalksOnLaw “Premium” or “Podcast” members.

Women in this country lag behind men according to most economic measures. Why this is and how to change it is the subject of the recent book "Fair Shake: Women and the Fight to Build a Just Economy" by Naomi Cahn, June Carbone, and Nancy Levit.

My guest today is Brian Bix, the Frederick W. Thomas Professor of Law And Philosophy at the University of Minnesota School of Law. He teaches and writes in the areas of family law, contract law, and jurisprudence. He joins us today to discuss his 2023 book, Families by Agreement: Navigating Choice, Tradition, and Law, published by Cambridge University Press. I really enjoyed this episode – it was both educational and entertaining. Brian is not only a productive scholar, but a generous one – note his discussion of other important scholars in the field during this episode, including Martha Fineman, June Carbone, Naomi Cahn, and Jody Madeira, among others. Also interesting is the discussion with my UVA Law student co-hosts, Alexa Rothborth and Tanner Stewart. Alexa is the second donor-conceived co-host to moderate a discussion about gamete donors on the podcast. That Season 3 episode, with Mary Anne Case and co-hosted by Reidar Composano and Bryan Blaylock, is linked in the show notes below. Reidar was also donor-conceived, as he discusses in that episode roundtable.Further ReadingBix Bio https://law.umn.edu/profiles/brian-bix Advanced Introduction to Contract Law and Theory (Edward Elgar Publishing, 2023)Amazon UMN LibrariesFamilies by Agreement: Navigating Choice, Tradition, and Law (Cambridge University Press, 2023)Amazon UMN LibrariesJurisprudence: Theory and Context, (Sweet & Maxwell (UK), Carolina Academic Press (US), 1st ed., 1996; 2d ed., 1999; 3d ed., 2003; 4th ed., 2006; 5th ed., 2009; 6th ed., 2012; 7th ed., 2015; 8th ed., 2019; 9th ed., 2023; translated into Chinese (Law Press, 2007), Greek (Kritiki Publications, 2007), Spanish (Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico, 2010), Italian (G.

Welcome to an interview with the authors of Fair Shake: Women and the Fight to Build a Just Economy, Naomi Cahn, June Carbone, and Nancy Levit. This book explains that the system that governs our economy—a winner-take-all economy—is the root cause of these myriad problems. The WTA economy self-selects for aggressive, cutthroat business tactics, which creates a feedback loop that sidelines women. The authors, three legal scholars, call this feedback loop “the triple bind”: if women don't compete on the same terms as men, they lose; if women do compete on the same terms as men, they're punished more harshly for their sharp elbows or actual misdeeds; and when women see that they can't win on the same terms as men, they take themselves out of the game (if they haven't been pushed out already). With odds like these stacked against them, it's no wonder women feel like, no matter how hard they work, they can't get ahead.   Naomi Cahn is the Justice Anthony M. Kennedy Distinguished Professor of Law at the University of Virginia School of Law, as well as the Co-Director of the Family Law Center. Cahn is the author or editor of numerous books written for both academic and trade publishers, including Red Families v. Blue Families and Homeward Bound. In 2017, Cahn received the Harry Krause Lifetime Achievement in Family Law Award from the University of Illinois College of Law and in 2024 she was inducted into the Clayton Alumni Hall of Fame.    June Carbone is the Robina Chair of Law, Science and Technology at the University of Minnesota Law School.

She has written From Partners to Parents and co-written Red Families v. Blue Families; Marriage Markets; and Family Law. She is a co-editor of the International Survey of Family Law.   Nancy Levit is the Associate Dean for Faculty and holds a Curator's Professorship at the University of Missouri–Kansas City School of Law.

In this captivating FUTUREPROOF. episode, Jeremy dives deep with legal scholars Naomi Cahn, June Carbone, and Nancy Levit, authors of Fair Shake: Women and the Fight to Build a Just Economy.They discuss the systemic issues causing the stagnation of progress for women in the workforce, challenging old-fashioned sexism with a fresh perspective on workplace redesigns that inadvertently favor men. The conversation covers a wide array of topics including corporate policies, the impact of gender roles on career advancement, and innovative legal and societal strategies to combat these ingrained inequities. Through engaging dialogue and powerful insights, this episode sheds light on the necessity for systemic change to achieve gender parity in the workplace.

Contrary to popular belief, the gender wage gap is widening, not narrowing. Naomi Cahn and June Carbone, authors of FAIR SHAKE: WOMEN AND THE FIGHT TO BUILD A JUST ECONOMY, discuss why working women still lag behind men both in wage equity and in positions of power. Naomi Cahn is the Justice Anthony M. Kennedy distinguished professor of law at the University of Virginia School of Law. June Carbone is the Robina chair of law, science, and technology at the University of Minnesota Law School. Naomi, June, and Amy discuss: How the "winner takes all" economy rewards men and not women The "triple bind" that sidelines women in the workplace How things get even more complicated for working parents What solutions for this problem look like at a societal, organizational, and personal level Here's where you can find more of June and Naomi: June Carbone: https://law.umn.edu/profiles/june-carbone Naomi Cahn: https://www.law.virginia.edu/faculty/profile/nrc8g/2915359 @carbonej and @NaomiCahn on X Buy FAIR SHAKE: https://bookshop.org/a/12099/9781982115128 We love the sponsors that make this show possible!

When June Carbone, Naomi Cahn and Nancy Levit set out to write a book about women in the workforce, they initially thought it would be a story all about women's march towards workplace equality. But when they looked at the data, they found something more disturbing: of the ways in which women's push toward workplace equality has actually been stalled for years. In today's episode, law professor June Carbone argues that the root of the problem lies in something they call the "winner take all" approach to business. That's the thesis of their new book, "Fair Shake: Women & the Fight to Build a Just Economy". Related episodes:What would it take to fix retirement?

Eleven years ago, Sheryl Sandberg's “Lean In” hit the shelves and frankly, blew up the world. Her feminist manifesto encouraged women to stop holding themselves back from working to reach positions of power and instead “lean on” other women's experiences to help them. Now, many women are pushing back on the “lean in” approach that placed so much responsibility on individual women rather than the societal and economic structures around them. They're also questioning if they really want to have it all in the first place.  In her new book: “Fair Shake: Women And The Fight To Build A Just Economy,” Naomi Cahn and her coauthors explore why our “winner takes all” economy is the root cause of women's continued economic inequality rather than our individual actions. She also talks solutions, starting with making deeper connections in our communities and reaching out to them for support when we need it.  Chapters: 00:00:00 - Introduction 00:03:12 - Interview with Naomi Khan 00:07:51 - Winner Take All Economy 00:10:18 - Intersection of Feminist Theory and Workplace Progress 00:14:43 - The Triple Bind Women Face in the Workplace 00:17:47 - Strategies for Women to Navigate Career Challenges 00:28:08 - Solutions to Combat the Winner-Take-All Economy 00:33:17 - Mailbag Segment Begins Takeaways:  The gender wage gap remains a persistent issue, with women earning an average of 82% of what men earn. The winner-take-all economy, characterized by income inequality and a focus on individual financial success, holds women back in the workplace. Feminist theory is essential in addressing gender equity and dismantling the structures that perpetuate inequality. Systemic changes, such as increasing transparency, strengthening laws, and investing in individuals and communities, are necessary to build a just economy. More money news when you need it!

We're in the midst of unprecedented times, where corporations prioritize short-term profits over the long-term health of their organizations, clients, and employees. Wage and wealth gaps grow ever-larger, and a few billionaires hoard an obscene amount of money while more and more people struggle just to get by. The upcoming book Fair Shake: Women and the Fight to Build a Just Economy, which my guest June Carbone co-authored with Naomi Cahn and Nancy Levit, explores the history, politics, and legality of how we got to where we are today, the impact this system has on women and the quest for gender equality, and the efforts being made to reverse these trends. Explore what past and present corporate research can teach us about where we're headed:Where did our winner-take-all economy come from?How does this profits-first, people-last approach impact women?What is the triple bind befalling women leaders today?How do we start rebuilding a positive-sum economic culture of collectivism?Related Links:Pre-order ‘Fair Shake: Women and the Fight to Build a Just Economy' - https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/fair-shake-naomi-cahn/1141652296?ean=9781982115128Banks with More Women on Their Boards Commit Less Fraud - https://hbr.org/2021/05/banks-with-more-women-on-their-boards-commit-less-fraudThe Nasdaq Stock Market LLC; Notice of Filing of Proposed Rule Change to AdoptListing Rules Related to Board Diversity - https://www.sec.gov/comments/sr-nasdaq-2020-081/srnasdaq2020081-8186013-227180.pdfConnect with June online - https://law.umn.edu/profiles/june-carboneEpisode 440: The Problem with Self-Help - https://www.bossedup.org/podcast/episode440Episode 444: Are Pay Transparency Laws Working? - https://www.bossedup.org/podcast/episode444Take Action with Bossed Up - https://www.bossedup.org/takeactionBossed Up Courage Community - https://www.facebook.com/groups/927776673968737/Bossed Up LinkedIn Group - https://www.linkedin.com/groups/7071888/

A stirring, comprehensive look at the state of women in the workforce--why women's progress has stalled, how our economy fosters unproductive competition, and how we can fix the system that holds women back. In an era of supposed great equality, women are still falling behind in the workplace. Even with more women in the workforce than in decades past, wage gaps continue to increase. It is the most educated women who have fallen the furthest behind. Blue-collar women hold the most insecure and badly paid jobs in our economy. And even as we celebrate high-profile representation--women on the board of Fortune 500 companies and our first female vice president--women have limited recourse when they experience harassment and discrimination. Fair Shake: Women and the Fight to Build a Just Economy (Simon & Schuster, 2023) explains that the system that governs our economy--a winner-take-all economy--is the root cause of these myriad problems. The WTA economy self-selects for aggressive, cutthroat business tactics, which creates a feedback loop that sidelines women. The authors, three legal scholars, call this feedback loop "the triple bind" if women don't compete on the same terms as men, they lose; if women do compete on the same terms as men, they're punished more harshly for their sharp elbows or actual misdeeds; and when women see that they can't win on the same terms as men, they take themselves out of the game (if they haven't been pushed out already). With odds like these stacked against them, it's no wonder women feel like, no matter how hard they work, they can't get ahead. Fair Shake is not a "fix the woman" book; it's a "fix the system" book. It not only diagnoses the problem of what's wrong with the modern economy, but shows how, with awareness and collective action, we can build a truly just economy for all.

The authors, three legal scholars, call this feedback loop "the triple bind" if women don't compete on the same terms as men, they lose; if women do compete on the same terms as men, they're punished more harshly for their sharp elbows or actual misdeeds; and when women see that they can't win on the same terms as men, they take themselves out of the game (if they haven't been pushed out already). With odds like these stacked against them, it's no wonder women feel like, no matter how hard they work, they can't get ahead. Fair Shake is not a "fix the woman" book; it's a "fix the system" book. It not only diagnoses the problem of what's wrong with the modern economy, but shows how, with awareness and collective action, we can build a truly just economy for all.

A stirring, comprehensive look at the state of women in the workforce--why women's progress has stalled, how our economy fosters unproductive competition, and how we can fix the system that holds women back. In an era of supposed great equality, women are still falling behind in the workplace. Even with more women in the workforce than in decades past, wage gaps continue to increase. It is the most educated women who have fallen the furthest behind. Blue-collar women hold the most insecure and badly paid jobs in our economy. And even as we celebrate high-profile representation--women on the board of Fortune 500 companies and our first female vice president--women have limited recourse when they experience harassment and discrimination.

Part 1:We talk with Prof. Geoffrey Levin, of Emory University. We discuss the conflict that American Jews feel with the current Israeli/Hamas war. While they are glad that Jews have a homeland, it now seems that Israelis are actively discriminating against the Palestinians living in Israel and Gaza. Israelis have become more right-wing, and willing to oppress Palestinians, even though they themselves have been the minority and the oppressed before.Part 2:We talk with Sonia Suter and Naomi Cahn about how states have treated the new abortion restrictions. Anti-abortion legislation has often included "exceptions" . But these 'exceptions' are not being used or allowing women to cite them. The laws have been written with deliberate vagueness, so that it has become problematic to observe them. Those seeking abortion have become lawbreakers, doctors need to have lawyers to interpret the regulations, and this has become a minefield for all. Women's lives are in danger because of outright refusal to grant the exceptions, or delays that make exceptions meaningless.  WNHNFM.ORG   production

Christianity Today’s March 2019 cover story examined how retirement fits into the Christian vision of faith and work and how assumptions about what retirement looks like are changing for many Americans. We looked at the increasingly diverse ways that Christians are leveraging their post-career years for the good of their families, churches, and communities. A lot of readers wrote in to express appreciation for covering a topic that really matters to so many, but we also got a fair number of responses that were concerned that our take on retirement was too narrow. One reader, Rodney, summed it up this way: "Your article 'Saving Retirement' in the March issue was a good summary of the situation facing retirees today. However, most of the examples of retirees doing something purposeful after retirement were people who had held leading positions in their field of work with presumably large salaries. The article definitely needed to portray what some ‘ordinary workers’ have gone on to do." We agreed with Rodney that there is a much broader picture of post-work life that needs to be acknowledged. Do Christian understandings of work and aging accommodate those who can’t afford to retire? Rev. Amy Ziettlow, pastor of Holy Cross Lutheran Church in Decatur, Illinois, and author, with Naomi Cahn, of Homeward Bound: Modern Families, Elder Care, and Loss, joined theology editor Caleb Lindgren and editor in chief Mark Galli to talk about the hopeful vision for retirement she sees in her working-class church community and her recommendations for how retirement-aged individuals and their churches can best partner with each other during the autumn years.

The U.S. population is aging and we often rely on our family to care for us during our twilight years. But, families today can be quite complex, with divorce, step-families, and cohabitation changing the roles that family members are used to playing. In their new book, Homeward Bound: Modern Families, Elder Care, and Loss (Oxford University Press, 2017), Amy Ziettlow and Naomi Cahn interview families caring for a parent at the end of life and write about how these new norms and obligations are navigated in modern families. The book addresses many issues that become apparent at the end of life: family roles, financial as well as time costs, in addition to the planning (or lack thereof) for decisions that need to be made at the end of life for the parent. After the parent passes away, roles, once again, must be negotiated in families in addition to negotiations around wealth transfers and mourning. This book would be a good addition to an upper level Sociology course on families or death and dying as the stories help illustrate some basic concepts and ideas. This book has a wide audience and would be of interest to sociologists, gerontologists, lawyers, as well as clergy or other religious leaders who help with end of life care. Ziettlow and Cahn not only provide interesting stories to illustrate what they find, they leave the reader with helpful tips and guides at the end of the book just in case the person reading it is also going through this life transition with a family member.

June Carbone & Naomi Cahn, authors of Marriage Markets, talk with Jay Ackroyd about the economics of family life, children, marriage, social structure.

(September 28, 2010) Todd Wilken interviews Dr J on Issues, Etc about the recent book "Red Families v. Blue Families," written by Naomi Cahn and June Carbone.  The authors contend that blue families work better than red ones, but Dr J notes the high price this exacts (one that not everyone can afford) and a discrepancy between preaching and practice.

Given the recent national debates over health care, environmental data, same sex marriage, and economic issues, it's interesting to see how the traditional "red" versus "blue" political divide reflects an even deeper divide in family life and values. When Virginia turned "blue" in the last Presidential election, what did that say about the people of the Commonwealth? Family law scholars Naomi Cahn and June Carbone examine America's bitter culture wars in the new book, Red Families v. Blue Families. They'll join HearSay host Cathy Lewis for the discussion today.
