H.

Stawasz

Stawasz’s research to date is situated at the intersection of administrative law, environmental law, animal law, and law and economics. His scholarship focuses on the ways in which benefit-cost analysis tends to overlook effects on things like household work, other species, and future people, and it suggests practical ways to bridge those often-unjustified gaps.

This research draws on Stawasz’s experiences as an adviser at the White House Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs during the Biden-Harris administration, as a legal fellow at the Institute for Policy Integrity at New York University School of Law, and as a research associate at economic consulting firm Data for Decisions LLC. His articles have appeared in journals including the University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform, Ecological Economics, PLoS ONE, Frontiers in Public Health, and Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal. He also has peer-review experience with the Journal of Benefit-Cost Analysis and Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal.

He is a member of the bars of New York and the US Court of Appeals for the 10th Circuit.
