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

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.

SUMMARY:FALL 2025 ADR SPEAKER SERIES The Practical Realities of Seeking Disability Accommodations: Burdens\, Backlashes\, and Conflict Resolution Breakthroughs
DESCRIPTION:  \nFALL 2025 ADR SPEAKER SERIES\nThe Practical Realities of Seeking Disability Accommodations: Burdens\, Backlashes\, and Conflict Resolution Breakthroughs\nDan Berstein\, MHS\nMH Mediate\n  \nWednesday\, September 17\, 2025\n12:30 – 1:30 P.M. PST\nVia Zoom\n  \nRSVP Here: https://forms.gle/29h6gbfNh7HsHUvC9\nThe Zoom link will be emailed approximately 24 hours prior to the presentation. \n  \nDan Berstein is a mediator living with bipolar disorder working to empower all mental health stakeholders using conflict resolution best practices that promote mental health empowerment and prevent mental illness discrimination. Dan’s book\, Mental Health and Conflicts: A Handbook for Empowerment\, was originally published by the ABA in 2022 and is being republished this year by DRI Press. Through Dan’s company\, MH Mediate\, Dan has helped thousands of organizations become more accessible\, trauma-informed\, and consistent when responding to challenges. In 2023\, the AAA-ICDR foundation funded BiasResistantCourts.org\, a free platform Dan developed in collaboration with the CUNY Dispute Resolution Center and court systems around the country\, teaching court-connected professionals twelve core skills for becoming bias-resistant and trauma-informed. In 2024\, Dan led the “Demystifying Distress” event co-sponsored by Mediate.com\, ACR\, APFM\, NAFCM\, and CPR. The free resources from this event have helped dispute resolution professionals to manage their own distress while reducing distress for the parties they serve. In 2025\, Dan launched free resources to help people living with mental health conditions use conflict resolution best practices when seeking support\, reorienting from rejection\, and pursuing disability accommodations\, all as part of projects funded by the New York State Office of Mental Health’s statewide stigma reduction efforts and the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene’s Office of Consumer Affairs. Recently\, Dan has been celebrating twenty years since his first hospitalization and diagnosis of bipolar disorder as part of his 20 Years Embracing Bipolar project accessible at www.danberstein.com/20years
