SUMMARY:CEALS Presents: US-Japan Cooperation in Trade\, Energy\, and Environmental Protection and US-Indo Pacific Strategy
DESCRIPTION:  \nThis project explores the strengthening of US-Japan cooperation in Eurasia\, focusing on three key areas: trade and investment\, energy security\, and environmental protection. The project takes into account the growing geopolitical tensions in the post-COVID-19 world\, especially China’s increasing assertiveness through the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and the US-Indo Pacific Strategy. The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted global supply chains\, exacerbated protectionist tendencies\, and shifted priorities in international trade. The election of Joe Biden in the US brought renewed focus on multilateralism\, environmental protection\, and free trade\, offering a window of opportunity for the US and Japan to assert their influence in shaping global governance frameworks\, particularly in Eurasia. President Trump supported the conceptualization of the US-Indo Pacific strategy during his first term. However\, his approach during his second term remains unclear.  The Free and Open Indo-Pacific (FOIP) strategy\, led by Japan\, serves as a key vehicle for promoting a rules-based international order in the region. FOIP emphasizes the rule of law\, free navigation\, and open markets\, countering China’s BRI\, which has been criticized for creating economic dependencies in the region. US-Japan collaboration is critical in reinforcing the liberal international economic order\, which is facing challenges due to rising nationalism\, authoritarianism\, and the declining efficacy of multilateral institutions. This project assesses how the US and Japan can leverage their strategic positions to improve trade\, foster sustainable energy cooperation\, and lead global environmental initiatives. Japan\, a leader in renewable energy technologies\, along with the US\, which has shifted focus under the Biden administration toward clean energy and environmental restoration\, offers a counterbalance to China’s state-driven projects that often neglect sustainability. \n  \nPaolo Davide Farah is a Full Professor of Public Administration and Public Policy (with tenure) at West Virginia University\, Eberly College of Arts and Sciences\, John D. Rockefeller IV School of Policy and Politics\, having joined the faculty in 2014.   \nHe is Coordinator of the Eberly College Interdisciplinary Research Collaborative on Global Challenges and Local Responses Initiatives and Director of the Energy Justice and Just Transition Lab at Center for Resilient Communities (CRC).  He is also Founder\, President and Director of gLAWcal – Global Law Initiatives for Sustainable Development. \nProfessor Farah’s teaching and research focus on law\, public policy and public administration\, democratic context of public administration\, legal and political foundations\, international law\, climate change\, international trade\, business and human rights\, social justice\, sustainable development\, energy and environmental law and policy. He is an expert in the interaction among trade\, economic globalization and non-trade concerns\, such as sustainable development\, energy\, environment and human rights.  He has published more than 60 peer-reviewed and US law review articles or book chapters\, 9 books and 6 journal special issues published or forthcoming and 20 additional peer-reviewed publications in Italian\, French\, Spanish and Chinese including a book published by the Law Press China. \nProfessor Farah graduated with a Maitrise in International and European Law from Paris Ouest La Defense Nanterre University (France)\, LLM in European Legal Studies from the College of Europe in Bruges (Belgium) and a Dual PhD in international law from Aix-Marseille University (France) and University of Milan (Italy). \n  \nLight lunch and refreshments to be served. \nRSVP Here!

SUMMARY:Survival\, Healing\, and Performance: Formerly Incarcerated Voices on Health Justice Inside & Out
DESCRIPTION:This event features performances by three solo theater performers\, Tony Cyprien\, Pamela Ann Keane\, and Tylon Sizemore\, all of whom have all lived through incarceration\, to share their personal encounters with the justice and healthcare systems. Through their stories\, they will explore life both behind bars and upon reentering society. \nIn their poignant and necessary narratives\, the performers will shed light on the injustices entrenched within the carceral system\, including systemic obstacles to adequate healthcare and the poor treatment endured by incarcerated individuals\, especially those from marginalized racial backgrounds. \nFollowing these powerful performances\, we will delve deeper into the intersections of the justice system\, healthcare\, and structural racism through a panel discussion and audience Q+A featuring the performers themselves\, alongside UCSF academics and community-engaged researchers Dr. Elizabeth Dzeng\, whose research focuses on racial health inequities and structural racism in healthcare\, and Dr. Jennifer James\, whose work lies at the intersections of race\, gender\, health\, and incarceration. Complementing their insights will be the legal expertise of Mark McGoldrick\, J.D.\, a Former Assistant Public Defender with three decades of experience in public criminal defense in California. \nWe invite you to enjoy these remarkable performances. The performers’ stories will illuminate the necessity for reform and advocacy regarding the health and healthcare of incarcerated individuals\, as well as to address overarching systemic injustices within the justice system\, including at its intersections with race and racism. We hope you will leave the event with a more profound empathy for those with lived experiences of incarceration and a greater appreciation for the resilience and courage of individuals who have persevered through injustice to survive and heal. \nRSVP here. \nAbout FIPPP: \nFIPPP features formerly incarcerated performers telling stories about their life experiences and is currently the Company-in-Residence at the Berkeley Repertory Theatre. FIPPP believes that sharing the stories of those who have been formerly incarcerated will foster compassion and understanding about the circumstances that may lead to incarceration. For their audiences\, the stories at FIPPP are meant to bring hope and shed light on the inhumane conditions prisoners often endure during and after incarceration. Find out more about FIPPP here. \nAbout the RISE Project: \nThe RISE research team is a group of interdisciplinary researchers based at the Division of Hospital Medicine at UCSF that aims to understand how structural racism shapes the experiences of older Black adults living with serious illness. Using qualitative and community-based participatory research methods\, the RISE team seeks to confront structural racism in healthcare and identify ways to advance health justice for older Black adults in San Francisco and beyond. Find out more about RISE here. \nAbout the Consortium: \nFounded in 2008\, the Consortium leverages law and policy to address the conditions in health care systems and society that together enable health and well-being. The Consortium envisions a world in which all individuals and communities can attain the highest level of health possible\, defined on their own terms. To this end\, the Consortium builds multidisciplinary and multistakeholder collaborations among faculty and students of UCSF and UC Law SF and the patients\, clients\, communities\, and organizations we serve alongside. Through these collaborations\, we engage in education and training\, research\, and public service that advances health and health equity. In all areas\, the Consortium’s work is guided by core values of empathy\, intellectual and academic integrity\, and optimism. \nThis performance is part of the Consortium’s Health Justice Event Series. We invite you to learn more on the Consortium website here\, or email consortium@uclawsf.edu for more information. \n

SUMMARY:2025 Japanese Law Symposium: Rights and Reparations of the Ainu and Settler Colonialism
DESCRIPTION:This year’s Japanese Law Symposium will assess the rights of the Ainu people and examine broader issues of settler colonialism from a comparative perspective. \n  \nThe Ainu are an Indigenous people who live in Hokkaido and the northern part of Honshu\, as well as in southern Sakhalin and the Kuril Islands. After the collapse of the Tokugawa shogunate\, the new Meiji government established the Kaitakushi (Hokkaido Development Commission) in 1869. The purpose the Kaitakushi was to defend against the rapidly advancing Russians and develop the resources of Hokkaido. In order to achieve this\, the Kaitakushi encouraged immigration from the mainland south of Honshu and allocated these immigrants land where the Ainu people lived. In 1899\, the Former Aborigines Protection Law was enacted. Although a small amount of land was allocated to the Ainu\, the Law promoted forced assimilation and prohibited use of the Ainu language and religious ceremonies. From this perspective\, the Meiji government’s Hokkaido colonization policy is an example of what is known today as settler colonialism. \n  \nPursuant to such policies\, the Japanese government denied the existence of Indigenous peoples. However\, after the United Nations adopted the Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples in 2007\, there was a growing movement in Japan to recognize the Ainu as an Indigenous people. In 2019\, the so-called “New Ainu Law” was enacted\, recognizing the Ainu as an Indigenous people and requiring national and local governments to raise awareness of Ainu culture and traditions. In addition\, it has become easier to obtain permission to carry out traditional events such as salmon fishing. Even so\, compensation for past damages is still inadequate\, and the collective right to carry out traditional events has not been recognized. Litigation over these issues continues to this day. \n  \n  \nSymposium Schedule \n12:00 Light lunch \n12:30 Welcome Remarks: Senior Professor Emeritus Setsuo Miyazawa and Center Director Keith Hand \n1:00 Keynote Speech: Professor Kunihiko Yoshida \n1:45 Break \n2:00 Commentary: Professor Jo Carrillo and Professor Natsu Taylor Saito \n2:45 Break \n3:00 Discussion and Q&A \n4:00 Closing Remarks: Senior Professor Emeritus Setsuo Miyazawa \n  \n  \nSymposium Participants \n  \nKeynote Speaker \n  \nProfessor Kunihiko Yoshida\, Ph.D. is Yunshan Professor of Law at the Guangdong University of Foreign Studies in China. \n  \nProfessor Yoshida earned a Ph.D. in Civil Law from Tokyo University\, Japan\, and has visited numerous law schools in the United States\, including Northwestern Law School (1989-1991)\, Stanford Law School (1994-1995)\, Harvard Law School /Harvard Yenching Institute (2002-2003)\, the University of Miami Law School (2012-2013)\, and the University of Colorado Law School (2018-2019). He has written more than 100 articles and case reports and has published ten monographs on a wide range of topics\, including contracts\, torts\, health law\, critical legal studies\, and critical race theory. His recent publications have focused on property theories\, specifically housing\, city making\, environment\, immigration\, and reparations. The relational perspective developed by the late Professor Ian Macneil at Northwestern is the common thread across these fields. \n  \nProfessor Yoshida has visited numerous East Asian countries in recent years to conduct collaborative work on reparations issues related to “comfort women” for the Japanese Army\, the Nanjing massacre\, the Chongqing bombings\, and the Jeju tragedies. He has held visiting appointments at universities in Korea\, Taiwan\, China\, Thailand and Cambodia. Since retiring from Hokkaido University\, he has served as the distinguished Yunshan Professor of Law at the Guangdong University of Foreign Studies. \n  \nProfessor Yoshida is an expert on reparations for the Ainu people\, the indigenous people in Hokkaido\, from a civil law perspective. His current research focuses on repatriation\, environmental injustice\, and traditional Indigenous knowledge to support the pressing agenda of Ainu reparations. In advancing this research\, he draws on 2007 UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples and other Indigenous peoples’ practices across the globe. For example\, he has recently been working on the Brazilian Minamata disease affecting on Indigenous peoples along the Amazon and taken a great interest in the social solidarity economy in the Global South. \n  \nModerator \n  \nSetsuo Miyazawa\, Ph.D. is Professor Emeritus at Kobe University and Senior Director Emeritus and Senior Affiliated Scholar at the Center for East Asian Legal Studies (CEALS) at UC Law San Francisco. He is a legal sociologist who holds a Ph.D. in Sociology from Yale University and a Ph.D. in Law from Hokkaido University. He served as a full professor at four universities in Japan until his mandatory retirement in 2016. Since 1995\, he taught as a visiting professor at ten law schools in North America\, including Harvard\, NYU\, and UC Berkeley\, before beginning his long-term association with UC Law San Francisco in 2008. He taught at UC Law San Francisco nearly every fall semester from 2008 to 2023 and served as Senior Director of CEALS from 2015 to 2023. He has organized an annual symposium on Japanese law almost every fall since 2012. Professor Miyazawa’s research interests are remarkably broad\, encompassing police\, criminal justice\, legal education\, the legal profession\, and corporate legal behavior. He has been highly active in international academic organizations. He received the Distinguished Book Award from the Division of International Criminology of the American Society of Criminology\, as well as the International Scholarship Prize\, the Stanton Wheeler Mentorship Award\, and the Legacy Award from the Law and Society Association. He was the Founding President of the Asian Law and Society Association and also served as the President of the Asian Society of Criminology. \n  \nDiscussants \n  \nJo Carrillo J.D./J.S.D. is Professor of Law and Faculty Director of the Indigenous Law Center (ILC) at UC Law San Francisco. For over three decades\, Professor Carrillo has taught and written extensively in property and property-related subjects\, including Federal Indian Law. She earned her B.A. from Stanford University\, her J.D. from the University of New Mexico\, and her J.S.D. from Stanford Law School. As Faculty Director of the UC Law Indigenous Law Center\, Professor Carrillo facilitates a seminar series called Law &. This series brings lawyers\, students\, and California Tribal leaders into the law school classroom to discuss land back and land stewardship issues. To date\, Law & Seminars have covered such topics as Tribal Law\, International Indigenous Peoples Rights Law (a seminar that includes instructors from all common law countries)\, Indigenous Land Acknowledgments (with Jonathan Cordero\, Metush (Chair) of the Ramaytush Tribe and Executive Director of the Association of Ramaytush Oholone) and Enhancing Access to Land and Stewardship (with Curtis Berkey of Berkey Williams and supported by a grant from the Resources Legacy Fund). Recently\, again with assistance from the Resources Legacy Fund\, Professor Carrillo has undertaken to study land back transfer documents. \n  \nAs a faculty member\, Professor Carrillo has served on the UC Law SF Legacy Committee. She now serves on the UC Law SF Restorative Justice Advisory Board\, which counsels UC Law SF Chancellor and Dean David Faigman on decanal-initiated restorative justice efforts for Indigenous communities in California. As a long-term project\, Professor Carrillo is co-editing a volume\, with UCLA Professor of History Benjamin Madley\, on redressing 19th century state sponsored harms against California Indigenous Peoples. \n  \nNatsu Taylor Saito\, J.D. is a Regents’ Professor Emerita at Georgia State University’s College of Law in Atlanta\, Georgia\, where she taught courses on race\, indigeneity\, immigration\, international law\, and human rights for almost 30 years. A graduate of Yale Law School and an activist attorney\, she remains involved in efforts to defend Indigenous rights\, contest police and prosecutorial misconduct\, and protect academic freedom. Professor Saito is the author of several dozen law review articles as well as three books: From Chinese Exclusion to Guantánamo Bay: Plenary Power and the Prerogative State (University of Colorado Press\, 2006)\, Meeting the Enemy: American Exceptionalism and International Law (New York University Press\, 2010)\, and Settler Colonialism\, Race and the Law: Why Structural Racism Persists (New York University Press\, 2020) \n  \n  \nLight lunch to be served. \nRSVP here \n  \n

SUMMARY:CEALS Presents - Negotiating Legality: Chinese Companies in the U.S. Legal System
DESCRIPTION:  \nFeatured Speaker: Professor Ji Li\, University of California\, Irvine School of Law \nDate/Time: Monday\, October 13\, 12:30-1:30 PM \nLocation: 200-605 \n  \nIn Negotiating Legality\, author Ji Li examines how Chinese multinational companies\, such as TikTok\, are navigating the challenges of the U.S. legal system amidst intensifying U.S.-China geopolitical tensions. This book introduces a dual institutional framework to analyze these companies’ adaptation strategies\, drawing on extensive interviews and multi-year survey data. It explores how Chinese firms build in-house legal capacities\, collaborate with U.S. legal professionals\, and manage litigation in American courts. In this talk\, Li will share highlights from his new book\, and offer invaluable insights into China’s global rise and its profound influence on the legal systems of developed nations like the U.S.\n\n\nJi Li is the John S. and Marilyn Long Professor of U.S.-China Business and Law at the University of California\, Irvine School of Law. Professor Li’s scholarship focuses on the intersection of U.S.-China relations and law\, particularly the adaptation of Chinese multinational companies to U.S. legal and regulatory systems\, the impact of the U.S.-China geopolitical rivalry on transnational legal actors\, and the interactions between China and the international legal order. He is the author of two books on these topics: Clash of Capitalisms (CUP\, 2018) and Negotiating Legality: Chinese Companies in the U.S. Legal System (CUP\, 2024).\n  \nLight lunch to be served. \nRSVP here \n
