SUMMARY:What is the Legal Status of Taiwan and Why Does it Matter?
DESCRIPTION:Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies Taiwan Workshop \nSpeaker: Peter Dutton\, Senior Research Fellow\, Paul Tsai China Center; Professor Emeritus\, U.S. Naval War College \nDiscussant: Alastair Iain Johnston\, Professor\, Government Department\, Harvard University \nTaiwan’s political status often dominates headlines. Yet its legal status — the foundation of U.S. policy — remains underdiscussed. At this event\, Paul Tsai China Center Senior Fellow Dr. Peter Dutton will trace Taiwan’s territorial status from the Qing Dynasty to the present day\, shedding light on the legal principles and historical developments that define its position in the world. \nPeter Dutton is a senior research fellow at the Paul Tsai China Center and Professor Emeritus at the U.S. Naval War College. Before coming to Yale\, Dutton served the U.S. Navy for more than 40 years in active duty and civilian capacities. He has advised a series of Pacific Fleet Commanders\, Secretaries of Defense\, Chairmen of the Joint Chiefs of Staff\, and other government offices on policies in the Asia-Pacific region and testified before the Senate and the House on a variety of China-related issues. He was also a professor of international law and China studies at the U.S. Naval War College\, where he directed the China Maritime Studies Institute and served as dean of the Center for Naval Warfare Studies. \nEvent details on the Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies website.

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.
