Profile: Professor Jonathan Zittrain
by wkoslow at 4/6/2004 2:24 pm
Jonathan Zittrain is currently Jack N. and Lillian R. Berkman Assistant Professor of Law at Harvard Law School. Previously, he served as the first ever executive director of the Berkman Center for Internet and Society, which he also co-founded. His current research projects include an ongoing study of internet filtering around the world, the Chilling Effects project, and the development of a new online idea exchange system called H2O. Professor Zittrain is known as a compelling and dynamic instructor, and he sees the iLaw program as an opportunity to explore the most fascinating questions in the field of internet law: "ILaw is a tour of the Internet past, present, and future(s) -- with focus on the battles being waged for control of its architecture and users." Professor Zittrain’s lovely dog, Mrs. Beasley, has also been known to make guest appearances at iLaw. Let’s hope she’s part of the festivities again this year.
