ASSISTANT PROFESSOR OF LAW Eric Feldman was the recipient of a 2004 Fulbright Scholarship, and will be a guest of Waseda University’s Graduate School of Law in Tokyo. Through an examination of the cascade of tobaccorelated laws that have been enacted in Japan since 2000, Feldman will analyze the relationship between law, culture, and social change, paying particular attention to the possible influence of international norms on Japan’s domestic legal regime.
The Fulbright Scholarship is the U.S. government’s flagship program in international educational exchange. The program, which sends 800 scholars and professionals to more than 140 countries every year, is sponsored by the U.S. State Department. Feldman, an expert on Japanese law, has written extensively about issues of comparative law and society. He has been a visiting professor at the Institut D’Etudes Politiques in Paris and a visiting scholar at Waseda University’s Graduate School of Law.  |
