Law, Life and Asia: Conversations with Jerome Alan Cohen

http://usali.org/media-entities/law-life-and-asia-conversations-with-jerome-alan-cohen/
In 1960, Jerome A. Cohen, a young law teacher at Berkeley who had clerked for two U.S. Supreme Court justices, accepted an offer to study a subject that was virtually unknown — the legal system of the People’s Republic of China. That decision marked the beginning of a long career in which Professor Cohen would advise Henry Kissinger on Sino-American rapprochement, be the first Western lawyer based in Beijing under the Communist regime and advocate for human rights throughout East Asia.

The following conversations, filmed in 2009, feature Professor Jerome A. Cohen’s preliminary thoughts about his eventual memoir, stimulated by questions people have asked him to answer. The videos can also be found here, on the NYU School of Law’s YouTube page.
