Zahr Said on the Craft Beer Industry

In this episode, Zahr Said, Associate Professor of Law and Associate Dean for Research and Faculty Development at the University of Washington School of Law, discusses her article "Craft Beer and the Rising Tide Effect: An Empirical Study of Sharing and Collaboration Among Seattle's Craft Breweries," which is published in the Lewis & Clark Law Review. Said begins by explaining what craft beer is and how she became interested in studying the craft beer industry. She situates her project in relation to the law and social norms turn in intellectual property scholarship and describes the qualitative empirical study she conducted of participants in the craft beer industry. She reflects on her finding of "coopetition" among participants in the industry, and how it manifested itself in relation to knowledge goods, among other things. And she discusses plans for future scholarship in the area. Said is on Twitter at @zahr_said.This episode was hosted by Brian L.
