Unpublished papers provided on this home page are prepublication drafts or
working papers and should not be cited, reproduced, or redistributed without
the express permission of the author(s).
Published papers made available on this home page are the electronic equivalent
of author's reprints and should not be reproduced or redistributed. Some publishers seem quite reluctant to allow the
WEB posting of papers submitted, in press, or published in print versions (University
of Chicago Press, for example). If I have permissions problems with such
publishers I will endeavor to post a paper for some span of days if you
request it by email, and then take it off the WEB again until the next request.
Such papers will be flagged in the list. Or else you can just ask me to send
you a copy.
