SUMMARY:Atrocity Crimes and the Limits of International Criminal Justice
DESCRIPTION:East Asian Legal Studies Talk:\n \nRaul Pangalangan\, LL.M ’86\, S.J.D. ’90\nProfessor and Former Law Dean\, University of the Philippines\nFormer Judge at the International Criminal Court (2015-2021) \nI will look at the ICC\, first and foremost\, as a court\, not as a creature of politics\, and ask how courts can confront injustices of historical scale that are not too easily amenable to court-dispensed justice. \nThe limits contained in the Rome Statute (e.g.\, the high evidentiary and fair trial standards\, the resulting slowness and costliness of ICC procedure\, the problem of selectivity\, the unenforced arrest warrants vis-a-vis the ICC’s dependence on the support of states\, and the requirement of victim participation and reparations) have been pictured as design flaws inherent in the project of international criminal justice.  I propose that they instead call on us to reconceive the kind of justice that we seek\, and ask whether judicial power as defined in the domestic sphere is transformed when exercised at the international sphere. \nSpeaker: \nRaul C. Pangalangan (LL.M 1986\, S.J.D. 1990) is a Professor of Law and former Law Dean at the University of the Philippines. He was a Judge at the International Criminal Court (ICC) from 2015-21\, where he presided over the first ICC case on the war crime of attacking cultural and religious heritage\, and sat in landmark cases involving child soldiers\, forced marriages\, and sexual slavery. In 2022-23\, he chaired the ILO Commission of Inquiry on Myanmar. For this school year\, he is a Fellow at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars in Washington D.C. He is a Member of the Permanent Court of Arbitration (The Hague) and Chair of the Philippine National Group at the PCA. He is an Associate Member of the Institut de Droit International\, and has served as a Visiting Professor at HLS. \nA light lunch will be provided. \nSponsored by EALS. Co-sponsored by the Harvard Law School Human Rights Program; the Harvard International Law Journal; and HLS Advocates.

SUMMARY:Disability Rights Advocacy and Legalism in South Korea and Japan
DESCRIPTION:East Asian Legal Studies and Harvard Law School Project on Disability (HPOD) Talk \nCeleste Arrington\nKorea Foundation Associate Professor of Political Science and International Affairs\nDirector\, GW Institute for Korean Studies\nCo-Director\, East Asia National Resource Center \nDisability rights advocates in South Korea and Japan have accessed the courts to address an array of disability rights issues\, from barriers to political participation and forced sterilization in Japan to the inaccessibility of inter-city buses and forced labor on salt farms in South Korea. In her talk\, Professor Celeste Arrington will analyze the emergence of legalism in South Korea and Japan\, through comparisons of recent reforms related to disability discrimination and accessibility. \nThis talk’s focus will be the specific contributions to the trend towards legalism in Japan and Korea by disability “cause” lawyers. This growing cohort of legal advocates have drafted and deliberated new legislation\, lobbied for policy changes\, enhanced the capacity of disabled persons’ organizations\, investigated human rights conditions\, established mechanisms for remedying rights violations\, monitored compliance with the 2006 United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities\, and represented persons with disabilities in court. Not only have these efforts helped to advance the rights of persons with disabilities\, they have also made an impact on South Korea’s and Japan’s legal systems more broadly. \nAs chronicled in Professor Arrington’s forthcoming book\, From Manners to Rules: Advocating for Legalism in South Korea and Japan (Cambridge Studies in Law and Society)\, in addition to important disability rights gains\, disability rights advocates have made notable contributions to the emergence of more formal rules and participatory policymaking and enforcement\, including through the courts. These markers of emerging legal formalism represent a change since governance in both countries was long known for relying on vague laws\, bureaucratic discretion\, and nonbinding exhortations. While existing studies of legalism and the broader judicialization of politics tend to offer top-down or structural explanations\, Professor Arrington’s forthcoming book traces how activists and lawyers are contributing to the legalistic turn in regulatory style from the bottom up by demanding more detailed and enforceable legal frameworks and using them in court. \nCeleste Arrington is Korea Foundation Associate Professor of Political Science and International Affairs at George Washington University. She is the Director of the GW Institute for Korea Studies and Co-Director of the East Asia National Resource Center (2024-present). She specializes in comparative public policy\, law and social change\, lawyers\, and governance\, with a regional focus on the Koreas and Japan. She is also interested in Northeast Asian security\, North Korean human rights\, and transnational activism. Her first book was Accidental Activists: Victim Movements and Governmental Accountability in Japan and South Korea (Cornell\, 2016). She has published numerous articles and she coedited Rights Claiming in South Korea with Patricia Goedde (Cambridge\, 2021). Her forthcoming book analyzes the legalistic turn in Korean and Japanese regulatory style through paired case studies related to tobacco control and disability rights. She received a PhD from UC Berkeley\, an MPhil from the University of Cambridge\, and an AB from Princeton University. She has been a fellow at the Program on U.S.-Japan Relations at Harvard\, the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton\, and the Ludwig Maximilians University in Munich. GW’s Office of the Vice President for Research awarded her the 2021 Early Career Research Scholar Award. Her article with Claudia Kim\, “Knowledge Production Through Legal Mobilization: Environmental Activism Against the U.S. Military Bases in East Asia\,” won the 2023 Asian Law and Society Association’s distinguished article award. \nLight lunch will be provided. \nSponsored by East Asian Legal Studies and the Harvard Law School Project on Disability (HPOD).

SUMMARY:Lawfare in the 21st Century: The Constitutional Court vs Democracy in Thailand
DESCRIPTION:Asia Center Thai Studies Seminar Series \nEugénie Mérieau\nAssociate Professor of Public Law\, University of Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne \nAgainst established theories linking constitutional courts to democratization\, the introduction of constitutional review in Thailand in the late 20th century has led to democratic breakdown in the 21st century. Since its creation\, the Thai Constitutional Court has dissolved most\, if not all\, of the pro-democracy\, anti-military political parties\, dismissed almost all elected prime ministers to date\, and paved the way for two military coups in 2006 and 2014. It has upheld the lese-majeste law and ruled any attempt to reform it as anticonstitutional\, while ruling democratic constitutional amendments as unconstitutional. This talk will analyze recent Thai Constitutional Courts cases targeting the youth movement and the Future Forward Party\, and offer reflections on the future of lawfare in Thailand. \nEugénie Mérieau is Associate Professor of Public Law at the University of Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne\, and a member of the Sorbonne Institute of Legal and Philosophical Research (CNRS). She is also an associate researcher at the Centre for International Research\, Sciences Po Paris\, and the Centre for Asian Legal Studies\, National University of Singapore. A specialist of authoritarian constitutionalism\, she has published extensively on Thai law and politics. Her latest book\, “Constitutional Bricolage : Thailand’s Sacred Monarchy vs the Rule of Law” was published by Hart in 2022. \nEvent details on the Asia Center website (opens in a new tab). \nSponsored by the Asia Center and the Thai Studies Program\, Harvard University.

SUMMARY:U.S. Tech Policy Toward China: Growing Parallels Between Washington and Beijing?
DESCRIPTION:East Asian Legal Studies Talk \nAngela Huyue Zhang \nProfessor of Law\, University of Southern California Gould School of Law \n \nIn this talk\, I will pose the provocative question of whether America is now acting like China in its attempt to contain China’s technological rise. Amid the escalating Sino-U.S. tech war\, the United States has built an unprecedented legal machine aimed at curbing China’s technological advancements. From imposing stringent sanctions on Chinese tech giants to restricting China’s access to advanced semiconductor chips and equipment\, the U.S. government has intensified efforts to slow China’s progress in key sectors. In parallel\, it has heightened scrutiny over both inbound and outbound investments related to China\, passed a law that could lead to a nationwide ban on Tik Tok\, and imposed steep tariffs on Chinese high-tech goods such as electric vehicles\, batteries\, and solar panels. Meanwhile\, U.S. agencies have significantly ramped up enforcement against espionage activities\, disproportionately targeting ethnic Chinese scientists\, which has led to a talent exodus in recent years. \nDrawing from my newly released book\, High Wire: How China Regulates Big Tech and Governs Its Economy\, I will explore the striking parallels between the U.S. and China’s regulatory governance. Through a deep dive into the structure\, processes\, and outcomes of U.S. legal strategies\, I will unravel the dynamic complexities and unintended consequences of U.S. legal actions against China. Additionally\, I will offer proposals on how the United States can recalibrate its tech policy to enhance resilience and maintain its competitive edge in the fast-changing technological landscape. \nAngela Huyue Zhang is a Professor of Law at the USC Gould School of Law. Zhang has broad research interests in the areas of law and economics\, particularly in transnational legal issues bearing on businesses. Widely recognized as a leading authority on Chinese tech regulation\, she has written extensively on this topic. Her first book\, Chinese Antitrust Exceptionalism: How the Rise of China Challenges Global Regulation\, was named one of the Best Political Economy Books of the Year by ProMarket in 2021. Her second book\, High Wire: How China Regulates Big Tech and Governs Its Economy\, released in March 2024\, has been covered in The New York Times\, Bloomberg\, Wire China\, MIT Tech Review and many other international news outlets. Zhang is currently conducting research on the regulation of artificial intelligence\, with plans to teach and write on this topic in the coming years. Before joining USC Gould in 2024\, Zhang taught at the University of Hong Kong\, New York University School of Law\, and King’s College London. \nBoxed lunch will be provided. \nSponsored by East Asian Legal Studies.

SUMMARY:Rightscaling Cities: The Political Economy of City Territory in China
DESCRIPTION:Fairbank Center Urban China Lecture Series \nZhang Guanchi (S.J.D. 2023)\nAssistant Professor of Law\, Vermont Law and Graduate School \n \nHow has the rescaling of the city territories interacted with China’s political and economic transformation? During the country’s rapid industrialization and urbanization\, Chinese cities have exhibited a relatively low degree of territorial fragmentation. This study examines the institutional experiments that have reclassified\, redivided\, and recombined local government territory in the People’s Republic of China since 1949. I argue that the constant rescaling of cities is a distinctive and underestimated mechanism in the Chinese state’s steering of economic transformation. \nThrough extensive fieldwork and archival research\, I find that the question of city scale has been integral to China’s economic modernization for the last seven decades. The constant tensions between the metropolitan center and periphery have driven various territorial reforms\, both before and after the market-oriented reform. These reforms have profoundly shaped the state’s economic development projects. I argue that\, over time\, metropolitan governments emerge as the primary scale for inter-local competition and coordination. While this particular territorial choice has contributed to China’s economic rise\, its entrenchment has ramifications for the country’s current challenges. \nGuanchi Zhang is an Assistant Professor of Law at Vermont Law and Graduate School. His research interests lie at the intersection of law\, urban studies\, and political economy. His current research projects focus on two primary areas of inquiry: the rise and fall of efforts to rightscale cities in China and the United States\, and the role of housing and zoning laws in the context of growing geographic disparities. \nEvent details and Zoom registration link on Fairbank Center website (will open in a new tab). \nSponsored by the Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies.

SUMMARY:Can Regulation Revive China’s Sagging Economy?
DESCRIPTION:Fairbank Center Critical Issues Confronting China Series \nAngela Huyue Zhang\nAssociate Professor of Law and Director\, Philip K.H. Wong Centre for Chinese Law\, University of Hong Kong\nProfessor of Law\, University of Southern California (in fall 2024) \nChina’s economy is at a crossroads\, facing its most significant challenges in recent memory. Amidst this economic turmoil\, a fierce debate has emerged among experts: Is the current economic downturn a result of ingrained structural issues\, recent policy shifts\, or escalating geopolitical tensions? \nIn this talk\, Professor Angela Zhang will offer a fresh perspective\, steering the conversation towards the impact of law on the Chinese economy. Drawing insights from her latest book\, “High Wire: How China Regulates Big Tech and Governs Its Economy\,” Professor Zhang will introduce the “Dynamic Pyramid Model” to demystify China’s regulatory governance. Through this lens\, she will explain the consistent regulatory pattern in some of the biggest policy challenges China has faced in recent years\, including tech regulation\, the covid-19 pandemic control\, the energy crisis in 2021\, the ongoing property crack down and China’s demographic crisis. This discussion aims to shed light on the political logic underpinning China’s regulatory policies\, while also identifying potential pathways toward economic revival. \nAngela Zhang is an Associate Professor of Law at the University of Hong Kong and Director of the Philip K. H. Wong Center for Chinese Law. Widely recognized as a leading authority on China’s tech regulation\, Angela has written extensively on this topic. She is the author of “Chinese Antitrust Exceptionalism: How the Rise of China Challenges Global Regulation” (Oxford\, 2021)\, which was named one of the Best Political Economy Books of 2021 by ProMarket. Angela’s second book\, “High Wire: How China Regulates Big Tech and Governs Its Economy\,” was released by Oxford University Press in March 2024. In fall 2024\, Angela will join the University of Southern California as a Professor of Law.

SUMMARY:Law and Political Economy in China: The Role of Law in Corporate Governance and Market Growth
DESCRIPTION:East Asian Legal Studies Book Launch & Panel Discussion \nAuthor: \n\nTamar Groswald Ozery\, Assistant Professor\, Department of Asian Studies\, Hebrew University of Jerusalem\n\nPanelists: \n\nWilliam P. Alford (moderator)\, Jerome A. and Joan L. Cohen Professor of Law\, Director of East Asian Legal Studies\, Chair of the Harvard Law School Project on Disability\, Harvard Law School\nRui Guo\, Visiting Scholar\, East Asian Legal Studies\, Harvard Law School\nNicholas C. Howson\, Pao Li Tsiang Professor of Law\, University of Michigan Law School\nMariana Pargendler\, Professor\, Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV) Law School; Professor of Law\, Harvard Law School (effective July 2024)\nMeg Rithmire\, F. Warren MacFarlan Associate Professor\, Business\, Government\, and International Economy Unit\, Harvard Business School\n\nIn her new book\, Law and Political Economy in China: The Role of Law in Corporate Governance and Market Growth (Cambridge University Press\, 2023)\, Tamar Groswald Ozery takes a law & political economy approach to deconstruct the role of law in China’s market development since 1978. \nPlease join us for a book launch event featuring a panel of international corporate governance and China law experts. Professor Groswald Ozery\, Professor Rithmire\, and Dr. Guo will join Professor Alford in person. Professor Howson and Professor Pargendler will participate via Zoom. \nDiscussion will mainly focus on the role of formal law in governing markets during the “Legalized Politicization Era” (2010–present)\, the present era of market development in China. Covered extensively in the book\, the present era reveals a shift in China’s political–economic equilibrium. The authorities over governing markets are being reconfigured to handle the consequences of prior era state capitalism. Such reconfiguration of market governance is achieved through the mobilization of legal institutions in two main directions: intensifying the presence of the regulatory state in the market and shifting substantial market governance powers directly to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). \nBoxed lunch will be provided. \nLearn about the book on the Cambridge University Press website (public site).\nAccess the complete e-book on Cambridge Core through the Harvard Library (Harvard login required). \nAuthor Profile:\nTamar Groswald Ozery is an Assistant Professor at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem\, Israel.

SUMMARY:The Chinese Surveillance Technology Industry and its Reception in African Countries
DESCRIPTION:East Asian Legal Studies Talk \nBulelani Jili\nMeta Ph.D. Research Fellow (African Studies and Anthropology) at Harvard University \n \nBulelani Jili’s research seeks to offer insights into how China’s domestic surveillance market and cyber capability ecosystem operate\, especially given the limited number of systematic studies that have analyzed its industry objectives. For the Chinese government\, investment in surveillance technologies advances both its ambitions of becoming a global technology leader as well as its means of domestic social control. These developments also foster further collaboration between state security actors and private tech firms. Accordingly\, the tech firms that support state cyber capabilities range from small cyber research startups to leading global tech enterprises. The state promotes surveillance technology and practices abroad through diplomatic exchanges\, law enforcement cooperation\, and training programs. These efforts encourage the dissemination of surveillance devices\, but also support the government’s goals concerning international norm-making in multilateral and regional institutions. \nThe proliferation of Chinese surveillance technology and cyber tools and the associated linkages between both state and private Chinese entities with those in other states\, especially in the Global South\, is a valuable component of Chinese state efforts to expand and strengthen their political and economic influence worldwide. Although individual governments purchasing Chinese digital tools have their local ambitions in mind\, Beijing’s export and promotion of domestic surveillance technologies shape the adoption of these tools in the Global South. As such\, investigating how Chinese actors leverage demand factors for their own aims\, does not undercut the ability of other countries to detect and determine outcomes. Rather it demonstrates an interplay between Chinese state strategy and local political environments. In this presentation\, Mr. Jili will focus on key features in China’s surveillance ecosystem\, and touch upon the key ‘pull factors’ from African countries and their significance for US interests. \nSpeaker Profile: \nBulelani Jili is a Meta Ph.D. Research Fellow at Harvard University\, where he is pursuing a Ph.D. in African studies and anthropology. His research interests include Africa-China relations; Cybersecurity; ICT development; African Political Economy; Internet Policy; Chinese Business Law; Law and Development; and Privacy Law. He is also a Cybersecurity Fellow at Harvard Kennedy School’s Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs; a Fellow at the Atlantic Council; a Visiting Fellow at Yale Law School; and is conducting research with the China\, Law\, Development project at Oxford University. Born in Durban\, South Africa\, he received an M.Phil. from Cambridge University\, M.A. in Economics from Peking University\, and B.A.\, in Politics\, Philosophy\, and Economics from Wesleyan University. \nBoxed lunch will be provided. \nSponsored by East Asian Legal Studies. Co-sponsored by the Department of African and African American Studies and the Department of Anthropology.
