Some Chicago Boyz know each other from student days at the University of Chicago. Others are Chicago boys in spirit. The blog name is also intended as a good-humored gesture of admiration for distinguished Chicago School economists and fellow travelers.
It’s up. Thanks to Mike Doughty and David Fischer for providing seed photos, and to Dan from Madison, from whom I ripped off the term, “subdivision wildlife.”
If you want to submit photos or written accounts of your urban/suburban wildlife encounters, please email them to submit at subdivisionwildlife dotcom, or to jonathan at chicagoboyz dotnet (or simply click the “support” email link in the upper-right column of this page).
The roundtable will begin in January. Further details and an anticipated schedule will follow soon. Stand by for that post.
Below the fold are short biographies and links for our truly outstanding group of contributors who have agreed to participate. Please take a look. (And read along with us.)
Thanks to Mark Safranski for helping to assemble this group.
As previously announced, in January, 2009 Chicagoboyz will begin hosting a roundtable discussion of the classic work of military theory, On War by Carl von Clausewitz.
Stand by for an announcement listing the Roundtable contributors, and the anticipated schedule of postings for the roundtable.
In the meantime, all your Clausewitz needs can be amply met by the extraordinarily good Clausewitz site. See, e.g. FAQs from that site.
We will be using this edition of On War, in case anyone wants to read along.
This turns out to be a popular topic, so I’m setting up a blog devoted to “beast in the garden” issues. I’m particularly interested in photos. So if you have any original photos of suburban (or urban) wildlife that you wouldn’t mind sharing, please forward them to me at jonathan at chicagoboyz dotnet, or the support email address in the top right corner of this blog.
Thanks!
