Tamar Megiddo was a post-doctoral fellow at the Minerva Center for the Rule of Law under Extreme Conditions at the University of Haifa in 2019-2020. She is also an adjunct professor at the College for Law and Business, and a teaching fellow at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.  A graduate of the Hebrew University (LL.B. ’09, magna cum laude), she also holds an LL.M. (’12, with honors) and a J.S.D. (’16) from New York University School of Law. She has previously held several post-doctoral positions at both Tel Aviv University (at the GlobalTrust and TraffLab ERC research projects) and at the Hebrew University (Lady Davis).

Tamar’s primary research interests are in public international law and law & technology. Focusing on non-elite, ‘ordinary’ individual people, and on the minute, everyday practice of law, she investigates how law and technology operate to empower and constrain individuals. Her work has been published in leading academic journals including the Harvard International Law Journal, The Yale Journal of International Law and the Columbia Journal of Transnational Law.
