SUMMARY:The Moral Turn in Administrative Law
DESCRIPTION:Toward a Critical Theory of Moral Administration is an in-person workshop to be held at UC Law San Francisco on Friday\, May 1\, 2026.  The workshop provides a forum to develop ideas about and theories of “moral administration”—a trend in legal scholarship\, jurisprudence\, and administrative practice toward foregrounding substantive moral values as the basis for administrative law and policy.  The workshop will be structured as a series of round-table style dialogues organized around broad themes such as: situating moral administration theoretically\, clarifying the substantive morals that should guide administration\, and methodological and practical considerations of operationalizing moral administration within a pluralist\, democratic polity. \nProgram Schedule\nClick here to view the program schedule. \nHotel Accommodations\nPlease feel free to arrange lodging at one of the partner hotels below\, which are offering discounted rates for UC Law San Francisco. \n  \n\nThe Proper Hotel San Francisco\n📍 45 McAllister St\, San Francisco\, CA 94102🔗 Booking Link – Special Rate for UC Law SF\nInterContinental Hotel San Francisco\n📍 888 Howard St\, San Francisco\, CA 94103\n🔗 Booking Link – Special Rate for UC Law SF\nThe Marker Union Square San Francisco Hotel\n📍 501 Geary St\, San Francisco\, CA 94102\n🔗 Booking Link – Special Rate for UC Law SF\nCorporate Code: NEGUCLS\n\n  \nTravel Grant / Travel Reimbursements\nIf you are receiving a travel grant (up to $1\,000)\, please email your receipts to Cynthia Diaz at diazcynthia@uclawsf.edu.

SUMMARY:Expanding Economic Justice: State and Local Innovations in Worker Protection
DESCRIPTION:As the Federal government continues to dismantle critical economic protections—gutting collective bargaining rights for public workers\, weakening anti-discrimination safeguards\, and rolling back hard-fought worker protections—state and local governments are emerging as critical arenas for defending and reimagining economic justice. This symposium convenes lawyers\, policymakers\, and movement organizers to examine how state and local actors can advance transformative labor policy from below—countering federal retrenchment\, developing new frameworks for worker power and inclusion\, and identifying the legal\, institutional\, and organizing tools needed to promote long-term economic justice and democratic stability. \n  \nProgram Schedule\n\n\n\nTime\nProgram\n\n\n9:30 am – 9:45 am\n\n\nWelcoming Remarks \n\n\n\n9:45 am – 11:00 am\n\nPanel #1 – State and Local Interventions: Legal Strategies for Worker Protections \nThis panel will explore how state and local governments are responding to federal rollbacks of labor protections and advancing new models for economic justice. \nPanelists: \n\nBranden Butler\, Director\, San Diego County Office of Ethics\, Compliance\, & Labor Standards\nMatthew Goldberg\, Chief Attorney\, Worker Protection Team\, S.F.

Before joining the LCO\, Betty was Senior Counselor to the Secretary of Labor at the U.S. Department of Labor\, where she focused on good jobs\, equity\, and worker safety net issues. A longtime advocate for workers’ rights and responsible business practices\, Betty’s previous leadership roles included serving as Policy Director at Asian Americans Advancing Justice-Los Angeles; Sta; Director at the UCLA Labor Center; and Directing Attorney of the Employment Law Unit at the Legal Aid Foundation of Los Angeles. \n  \nBetty has worked on a spectrum of social and economic justice campaigns and initiatives in the areas of workers’ rights\, racial justice\, immigrant rights\, education equity\, workforce development\, and gender justice. Betty began her career representing workers in low-wage industries with wage claims in Labor Commissioner proceedings and has extensive experience in law and organizing. She served on the legal team that litigated the El Monte Thai and Latina garment worker case\, as well as the legal team supporting the leadership of Dream Team LA in the successful campaign to win Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA). On the policy and legislative front\, Betty played an integral role in several successful campaigns\, including securing $10 million in the California state budget for the state labor agency’s SEED Initiative supporting immigrant entrepreneurship and worker cooperatives; enacting landmark state legislation allocating $240 million to increase diversity\, equity\, and inclusion in the K-to-University of California graduation pipeline; establishing protections for immigrant students in K-12 schools throughout California; defeating proposed legislation that would have required the equivalent English-only business signs in a predominantly immigrant municipality; winning $22 million in additional annual income for Los Angeles taxi workers; obtaining reauthorization of the Car Wash Worker Law; and passing state legislation to address racial and identity profiling by law enforcement. \n  \nBetty has extensive experience in coalition building and fostering government-communitylabor partnerships\, including helping to co-found the Coalition of Low Wage and Immigrant Worker Advocates (CLIWA).

Betty is a graduate of Harvard College and Yale Law School. \n  \nWinnie Kao\n \nWinnie Kao is Senior Counsel for impact litigation at the Asian Law Caucus (ALC). Winnie served as ALC’s Litigation Director from 2012 – 2020. She also directed ALC’s Workers’ Rights Program from 2011 – 2024. Prior to joining ALC\, Winnie worked at a union-side labor and employment law firm where she primarily represented hotel\, restaurant\, and food and commercial workers and unions in a wide variety of labor\, employment\, constitutional\, and class-action cases. Winnie was previously a trial attorney for the United States Department of Justice Civil Rights Division where she litigated housing and public accommodation discrimination cases\, and has worked as a community organizer for labor and civil rights groups. She has won commendations and awards for her work from numerous organizations including the National Asian Pacific American Bar Association\, the San Francisco Board of Supervisors\, the National Asian Pacific American Women’s Forum\, the U.S. Department of Justice\, and the University of Michigan Law School. \n  \nMinsu Longiaru\n \nMinsu provides legal support and strategic thought partnership to organizing and policy campaigns in the PowerSwitch Action Network that build worker power through the interaction of organizing\, comprehensive campaigning\, direct representation\, impact litigation\, and policy and administrative strategies. \n  \nMinsu has dedicated her career to learning to be—what lawyer\, legal scholar\, and advocate Amanda Alexander calls— an “organizer with legal skills\,” who can provide wide-ranging support to movements\, social justice groups\, and organizers. After graduating from law school\, Minsu spent ten years directly supporting workers centers and worker-led movements. During this time she served as a Skadden fellow and staff attorney in legal aid and clinical law programs\, a Fulbright Garcſa-Robles fellow researching transnational advocacy networks\, and held local and national leadership positions at Restaurant Opportunities Centers United\, in which she was responsible for weaving together workplace justice\, research\, and policy campaigns. \n  \nMinsu devoted the next ten years of her career to honing her skills as a seasoned workers’ rights attorney with experience in investigations\, litigation\, and policy. This included four years representing workers and labor organizations at a union-side law firm\, and nearly six years working in government enforcing workers’ rights laws. Most recently she served as a Deputy Attorney General with the State of California’s Worker Rights and Fair Labor Section\, addressing systemic business practices that undermine the working conditions of app-based workers\, warehouse workers\, and others. For their work\, Minsu and her colleagues were awarded the Attorney General Team Award in 2021 and 2022 for demonstrating the highest professional work standards. \n  \nBut whatever Minsu has done pales in comparison to what she has seen workers and communities do time and time again: put everything on the line to stand up for transformative justice. Whenever a challenge seems daunting\, she thinks of their call to all of us to dwell in and act from a place of hope and radical possibility. \n  \nMinsu holds a BA and JD from Harvard University. Outside of work\, Minsu enjoys spending time with her family\, and playing the cello\, which she does mostly in her basement but occasionally elsewhere. \n  \nEllen Love\n \nEllen Love focuses on strengthening local and state labor law enforcement\, working directly with labor enforcement agencies as well as their community-based partners. Ellen has 10 years of hands-on experience implementing local labor laws with the San Francisco Office of Labor Standards Enforcement. Ellen facilitated outreach on new labor laws\, led data collection and analysis\, managed contracts with community groups\, and conducted investigations. She has also assisted state and local governments with socially responsible public procurement at the Responsible Purchasing Network and supported the start-up of worker-owned businesses with Prospera in Oakland\, California. Ellen holds a master’s degree in public policy from the Goldman School at the University of California\, Berkeley and a BA from Brown University. \n  \nNayantara Mehta\n \nNayantara Mehta was most recently the Director of the Worker Power Program at the National Employment Law Project (NELP). She worked on a range of economic justice policy issues\, such as improving conditions and identifying pathways to build power for workers in precarious and underpaid jobs\, from “gig work” to issues affecting workers with arrest and conviction records. She represented NELP in various roles in the California Strategic Enforcement Partnership (CSEP)\, the California Coalition for Worker Power (CCWP)\, and the Coalition for Low-Wage and Immigrant Worker Advocates (CLIWA). During her 10 years at NELP\, Nayantara was a proud member of the NELP Staff Association\, NOLSW\, UAW\, LOCAL 2320. \n  \nBefore working at NELP\, Nayantara spent almost nine years with the Alliance for Justice’s Bolder Advocacy program\, where she advised organizations and coalitions on the legal issues related to their campaigns for economic justice\, immigrants’ rights\, environmental justice\, reproductive justice\, and more. \n  \nNayantara has a JD from Berkeley Law\, an MA from the University of Chicago\, and a BA from the College of William and Mary. \n  \nBrenda Muñoz\n \nBrenda Muñoz has over 20 years of experience working with labor unions and organizations in the nonprofit\, public\, and private sectors to improve the lives and well-being of working people. She has diverse skills as an organizer\, strategic researcher\, policy analyst\, and manager. \n  \nPrior to joining the Labor Center\, Brenda led the strategic and programmatic direction of the Kaiser Permanente Labor Management Partnership’s Labor Liaison Program. She served as a bridge between public and private sector union leaders and Kaiser Permanente leaders on health benefit and worker well-being issues. Earlier\, Brenda worked as a policy analyst at the federal Government Accountability Office (GAO)\, and\, as a graduate student\, with the San Francisco Office of Labor Standards Enforcement researching and analyzing employer compliance with the historic San Francisco Health Care Security Ordinance. As a staff member at the Berkeley-based nonprofit Labor Project for Working Families\, Brenda conducted outreach and education among union members around work and family balance issues. She also worked at AFSCME in several states\, including California\, Maryland\, and New Mexico\, as both an organizer and a strategic researcher. Brenda has a Master of Public Policy degree from the University of California\, Berkeley. She enjoys hiking\, crafting\, and photography. \nSatoshi Yanai\n \nSatoshi Yanai is the Senior Assistant Attorney General of the Worker Rights and Fair Labor Section at the California Department of Justice. The mission of the Worker Rights and Fair Labor Section is to utilize the broad legal powers of the Office of the Attorney General to conduct investigations\, litigation\, and policy advocacy in order to combat systemic business practices that undermine the economic security\, health and safety\, and dignity of California workers\, and to maintain a level playing field for legitimate businesses operating in the State. Prior to joining the California Department of Justice in 2007\, Satoshi advocated on behalf of workers at the U.S. Department of Labor\, Office of the Solicitor; at the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing (now the California Civil Rights Department); and in private practice at a firm representing labor unions and multiemployer employee benefit plans.

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:The Center for East Asian Legal Studies proudly presents: America’s Legal Gambit to Curb China’s Technological Rise
DESCRIPTION:e The Center for East Asian Legal Studies (CEALS) proudly presents: \n \n  \nAbstract: \nIn this talk\, I will pose the provocative question of whether America is now acting like China in its attempt to curb 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. Drawing 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. \n  \nProfile: \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. \n  \nLight lunch to be served\, RSVP here
