SUMMARY:From Copycat to Technology Innovator: China’s Use of IP as Strategic Governance -- Haochen Sun
DESCRIPTION:East Asian Legal Studies Talk\nCo-sponsored with the Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies and the Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society \nHaochen Sun LLM ’06\nProfessor of Law\, The University of Hong Kong\nFounding Director\, HKU Program on AI and the Law \nWhat role have state-orchestrated intellectual property policies played in China’s emergence as a major technology innovator? This talk discusses two interrelated transformations that have taken place in China over the past two decades: the rise and fall of the shanzai (copycat) culture movement and China’s ascent as a tech superpower since 2015. In analyzing these transformations\, the talk explains how China has deployed IP as a tool of strategic governance and statecraft. \nProfessor Haochen Sun specializes in intellectual property\, technology law\, and Chinese law. His wide-ranging scholarship has delved into areas such as the legal status of artificial intelligence creations\, access to patented medicines and vaccines\, intellectual property rights owners’ responsibilities\, and the trademark protection of luxury brands. He is currently working on two new research projects. The first one aims to develop a new ethical framework for regulating AI creativity\, while the second one critically examines the epic transformations that have taken place in China’s regulation of technologies. He recently founded the Program on Artificial Intelligence and the Law\, a research hub for studying the impact of AI on the legal system. \nCoffee and light snacks will be provided.

SUMMARY:Mediated Populism and Capital Justice in China -- Michelle Miao
DESCRIPTION:East Asian Legal Studies Talk: \nMichelle Miao \nAssociate Professor of Law\, The Chinese University of Hong Kong \nSocial media function not merely as communication conduits but as active agents shaping public discourses central to judicial matters and political life. This talk examines how public discussions of high-profile capital homicide cases are transmitted through social media algorithms in China. Drawing on mediated populism and theories of political communication\, it analyses media data to explore the intersection of platform governance\, state communication strategies\, and popular engagement with criminal justice. Employing content analysis and quantitative metrics\, the study contributes to scholarship on judicial politics and the evolving landscape of comparative law in the social media age. \nProfessor Michelle Miao is an Associate Professor of law from the Faculty of Law\, Chinese University of Hong Kong. She holds a DPhil degree in law from the University of Oxford and two LLM degrees from New York University and Renmin University of China respectively.

She published with reputable international journals such as American Journal of Comparative Law\, International Comparative Law Quarterly and British Journal of Criminology. She presented her work at Asian Law Institute’s Junior Faculty Forum (2021)\, Chicago-Tsinghua Junior Faculty Forum (2019)\, and Stanford International Junior Faculty Forum (IJFF) (2015). Her scholarship and commentaries have been featured in various international media outlets\, including The Guardian\, Financial Times\, Wall Street Journal\, South China Morning Post\, and The Globe and Mail. \nProfessor Miao is an awardee of the American Society of Comparative Law’s Hessel Yntema Prize (2020) for the most outstanding scholarship by a scholar under 40 years of age. She is also a recipient of CUHK Law’s Academic Impact in Legal Scholarship (2021)\, Asian Law Institute’s Junior Faculty Award for Best Paper (2020)\, Chinese University of Hong Kong’s Young Researcher Award (2019)\, and Chinese University Faculty Teaching Excellence Awards (Hong Kong\, 2019). \nA light lunch will be provided. Please register here. \nA Harvard ID is required in order to enter Harvard Law School buildings.

SUMMARY:Cultural Property Law in Practice: Restitution and Repatriation of Cambodian Antiquities -- Bradley Gordon
DESCRIPTION:East Asian Legal Studies Talk: \nBradley Gordon JD ’95 \nManaging Partner\, Edenbridge Asia \nBrad Gordon will speak about his work advising the Cambodian government on the repatriation of stolen artifacts. He will examine Cambodia’s recent restitution efforts as a case study in cultural property law\, focusing on legal strategy\, diplomatic engagement\, and negotiations with museums and collectors. Drawing on his experience\, he will discuss how negotiated returns\, provenance research\, and international law have shaped contemporary repatriation practice\, and reflect on broader implications for museum ethics and state practice. \nBradley J. Gordon is the Founder of Edenbridge Asia Partners. He holds a J.D. from Harvard Law School and a B.A. from Brown University. Brad has advised multinational corporations\, family business owners\, and NGO clients for over 28 years\, including 25+ years of professional experience in Asia. Brad is a U.S. and Cambodian citizen and has worked at leading international law firms including Linklaters\, Freshfields\, and Shearman & Sterling. He is a member of the Bar of the State of New York. Earlier in his career\, Brad worked with Cambodian refugees in Thailand in 1989\, reflecting a long-standing connection to the region. Brad currently serves as an Advisory Board Member of the Harpswell Foundation. \nOver the past decade\, working pro bono for Cambodia’s Ministry of Culture and Fine Arts\, Brad has led a groundbreaking initiative to trace\, document\, and repatriate thousands of Cambodian antiquities looted during decades of civil war and conflict. His team’s work has brought together archaeologists\, legal experts\, and former looters to identify stolen heritage and establish credible provenance. These efforts reached a major turning point following the U.S. indictment of Douglas Latchford\, whom Brad has described as “the mastermind behind the greatest art heist in history.” The proceedings ultimately resulted in the return of hundreds of artifacts and the recovery of critical provenance documentation from the Latchford estate. In recognition of his extraordinary service in recovering Cambodia’s national cultural heritage\, Brad was conferred a knighthood by His Majesty the King of Cambodia in 2023. \nBrad speaks Thai and Khmer. \nA light lunch will be provided.

SUMMARY:Wu Jingxiong\, Between Natural Law and Geopolitics: The Insights and Dilemmas of a Catholic Chinese Law Professor in Cold War America -- Jedidiah Kroncke
DESCRIPTION:East Asian Legal Studies Talk: \nJedidiah Kroncke\nAssociate Professor of Law\, The University of Hong Kong \nThe life of Chinese legal scholar Wu Jingxiong has long attracted attention given his diverse intellectual interests and high profile in Chinese judicial politics and constitutional reform during the 1930s and 1940s. Like many of his generation\, Wu’s education combine traditional Confucian schooling with study at multiple Western-influenced institutions. During his first law degree\, he converted to Christianity\, and his religious journey ultimately led him to become one of the most notable Catholic Chinese intellectuals of this era. Episodes of his transnationalized life have been well-studied—from his relationship with Oliver Wendell Holmes to his engagement with numerous other legal and religious thinkers. \nYet\, Wu’s life after the end of the Chinese Civil War in 1949 has received less attention. During this period\, Wu spent fifteen years in the United States primarily teaching law at Seton Hall University. While the least studied time of his life\, this era was a critical juncture in his ongoing quest to reconcile his Confucian sympathies with his Catholic faith. Wu became a significant contributor to debates regarding the relationship of the common law to natural law and the relationship of Vatican II to Catholic legal thought. he became closely associated with a diverse range of prominent Catholic scholars. Wu’s fondness of Edmund Burke’s ideas led him to develop interlocutors such as Russell Kirk and Peter Stanlis\, and led to his frequent citation in post-World War II conservative American legal thought. Simultaneously\, he developed a deep friendship with Thomas Merton and others seeking to explore more cosmopolitan visions. \nWu’s ultimate return to Taiwan was impacted by the complications of these debates crosscut by Cold War geopolitical tensions. Wu’s life is revealing not only as an example of the challenges that diasporic Chinese intellectuals faced during this era but also of how his relatively unique intellectual commitments shed light on global tensions in Catholicism and American Cold War geopolitics. Today\, amidst rising contemporary Sino-American frictions and renewed debates over the role of Catholic legal thinking in US politics\, Wu’s complex American experience as a transnational intellectual is newly provocative and probative. \nDr. Jedidiah Kroncke is an associate professor of law at the University of Hong Kong\, where he teaches trust law and the law of cooperative enterprises. His research centers on international legal history and the comparative study of alternative labor and property institutions. His first book\, The Futility of Law and Development: China and the Dangers of Exporting American Law (Oxford University Press\, 2016)\, explores the role of US-China relations in the formation of modern American legal internationalism and the decline of American legal comparativism. Other publications have addressed law and development\, authoritarian law and legal ethics\, the history of international law\, and comparative law and political economy. He received a B.A. from the University of California Berkeley\, a J.D. from Yale Law School\, and a Ph.D. in Social and Cultural Anthropology from UC Berkeley\, and then served as a Berger-Howe Legal History Fellow at Harvard Law School\, Golieb Fellow in Legal History at NYU Law School\, and Ruebhausen Fellow in Law at Yale Law School. \nA light lunch will be provided.

SUMMARY:The Rise of Authoritarian Sustainability? China's Transformative Engagement with the UN Sustainable Development Goals -- Ryan Mitchell
DESCRIPTION:East Asian Legal Studies Talk: \nRyan Martinez Mitchell\, JD ’12 \nAssociate Professor of Law\, The Chinese University of Hong Kong \nAuthor of Recentering the World: China and the Transformation of International Law \nSince the adoption of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in 2015\, this global development concept has been increasingly incorporated into the People’s Republic of China’s structures of state planning\, intra-Party governance\, and a comprehensive ideological narrative articulating both national and global objectives. Indeed\, China’s role in and advocacy for the SDGs\, beginning during the negotiations on their formation\, is now at the heart of its foreign policy and international law initiatives. There has also been an increasing permeation of SDG indicators into Beijing’s domestic formulation and evaluation of policies (including for audiences of elite policymakers). Significantly\, China has also come to be seen by many as a model of achievement with regard to the SDGs at a time of US withdrawal and generalized crisis in the arena of global development. \nThe emerging pattern could be seen as one example of “authoritarian sustainability”: a configuration in which the legitimacy of illiberal governance is extensively reinforced by the discourse and metrics of sustainable development. As a unique melding of China’s domestic politics with a global agenda\, the SDG targets now serve as guiding principles\, integrating social and environmental policy\, economic regulation\, and state legitimacy claims into a single project. At the same time\, viewed in connection with the international legal order\, Beijing’s approach may help spur a global transition away from civil and political conceptions of human rights\, in favor of the similarly universalist but “post-liberal” SDG framework. However\, while in many ways a success story\, China’s model of SDG engagement also includes several paradoxical features that may indicate its own replicability challenges\, latent drawbacks or contradictions\, and the need to contemplate alternative paths. Empirical and structural analysis of China’s legal and regulatory approaches indicate features–such as reliance on controlled disruption\, völkisch ecology\, and “saltationist” mobilization–that call into question the viability of authoritarian sustainability as a long-term model in China or as an example for developing states. \nRyan Martínez Mitchell is an Associate Professor of Law at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. His work on international and comparative law\, legal history\, Chinese law\, and Asian legal systems has appeared in leading academic journals. His analysis of these issues has also featured in policy-related publications including Foreign Affairs\, The National Interest\, The Diplomat\, and others\, and his analysis has been cited in media including The New York Times\, The Wall Street Journal\, Financial Times\, The National Interest\, NPR\, Bloomberg\, Nikkei Asia\, Al Jazeera\, Foreign Policy\, and other major media outlets. His first book\, Recentering the World: China and the Transformation of International Law\, was published by Cambridge University Press in 2022. Mitchell holds a B.A. with honors from The New School\, a J.D. from Harvard Law School\, where he was also a Cravath International Fellow and an Irving R. Kaufman Public Interest Fellow\, and a Ph.D. in Law with distinction from Yale Law School\, where he was an Andrew W. Mellon Foundation Humanities Fellow and obtained Yale’s Archaia qualification in the study of premodern societies. He is a member of the State Bar of California and has experience in international human rights litigation. In the current academic year\, he will be a visiting Fellow at Yale Law School’s Orville H. Schell Jr. Center for International Human Rights\, Global Faculty at the Freie Universität Berlin Department of Law\, and an International Affairs Fellow in Japan for the Council on Foreign Relations. \nA light lunch will be provided at this event. Please register here. \n*Location note: In past years\, EALS talks were generally in Morgan Courtroom (Austin 308)\, but due to the construction project currently underway next to Austin Hall\, we will hold most EALS talks in Wasserstein Hall during the 2025-2026 academic year. \n

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.

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: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: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.
