OVERVIEW
Spencer J. Bloch has had a substantial impact on, in particular, algebraic
K-theory, algebraic cycles and motives. This conference will serve
as a tribute to part of his work, concentrating on motives and algebraic
cycles. Some of the speakers will discuss Bloch's work in those areas,
most will talk about recent developments in those or related fields.
