'Cross-Border Challenges to Data Privacy' - Stephen J Schulhofer: CIPIL/LCIL Seminar

Stephen J. Schulhofer, of New York University, gave an evening seminar entitled "Cross-Border Challenges to Data Privacy" on 17 March 2017 at the Lauterpacht Centre for International Law as a guest of CIPIL (the Centre for Intellectual Property and Information Law) and LCIL (Lauterpacht Centre for International Law). Stephen J. Schulhofer, the Robert B. McKay Professor of Law at New York University, is one of America’s leading scholars of criminal justice. He has written more than 50 scholarly articles and seven books, including the leading casebook in the field, and widely cited work on many criminal justice and national security topics. His most recent book, Surveillance, Privacy and Transatlantic Relations (Hart, 2017) (with David Cole & Federico Fabbrini) examines the multiple challenges to democracy and privacy as well as to national security and global economic development posed by technological advance and pressures for effective responses to transnational terrorism. His book More Essential Than Ever: The Fourth Amendment in the Twenty-First Century (Oxford University Press, 2012) provides a comprehensive analysis of Fourth Amendment history and current legal doctrine, along with discussion of contemporary problems concerning searches, electronic surveillance, and the intersection between national security needs and the right to privacy. His journal articles address counterterrorism, police interrogation, drug enforcement, indigent defense, plea bargaining, and many other criminal justice matters. Schulhofer’s current projects include analyses of national security secrecy, the right to privacy in electronic communications, and an empirical study of the impact of counterterrorism policing on immigrant communities in New York and London. Previously, Schulhofer taught at the University of Chicago and the University of Pennsylvania. He completed his BA at Princeton University and his JD at Harvard Law School, both summa cum laude. He then clerked for two years for US Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black and practiced law for three years before beginning his academic career.
