2010 Annual Report 1 Introduction to the American Bar Foundation

Mission The American Bar Foundation is the nation’s leading research institute for the empirical study of law. An independent, nonprofit organization, for more than fifty years the ABF has advanced the understanding and improvement of law through research projects of unmatched scale and quality on the most pressing issues facing the legal system in the and the world. The Foundation is committed to broad dissemination of its research findings to the organized bar, scholars, and the public. The results are published in a wide range of forums, including leading academic journals, law reviews, and academic and commercial presses. Research Faculty The research program of the American Bar Foundation is implemented through the projects designed and conducted by the members of the ABF’s resident research faculty. ABF Research Professors are among the leading scholars in their disciplines, which include anthropology, economics, history, law, political science, psychology, and sociology. A research project is undertaken only after completion of a very extensive review process. The internal review committee, an external review panel, the Research Committee of the ABF Board, and ultimately the Board of Directors must conclude that the proposed study will make a significant contribution to the field and that the research can be carried out with the appropriate standards of integrity, human subjects protection, and scholarship. Funding The Foundation extends special thanks to the American Bar Endowment . The American Bar Endowment’s grant of $ 3,750,000 in fiscal year 200 9-2010 makes the Endowment the Foundation’s largest supporter. Founded in 1942, the ABE is a charitable organization dedicated to improving the quality of justice in the United States by funding research, educational, and public service projects in the field of law. ABA members who participate in the Endowment’s group insurance programs can contribute to these efforts. Those members who participate in the Endowment’s insurance plans, and allow the ABE to retain dividends payable on the group insurance policies, provide essential support for the ABE’s grant program. The Foundation would like to thank all ABA members who participate in ABE insurance plans and donate their dividends, along with the ABE, for the valuable funding they have provided. Other sponsors include The Fellows of the American Bar Foundation and private foundations and government agencies that award grants to support specific research projects and other ABF programs. The American Bar Foundation is recognized as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization . The Fellows of the American Bar Foundation The Fellows of the American Bar Foundation is an organization of lawyers, judges, law faculty, and legal scholars who have been elected by their peers to become members of The Fellows because of their outstanding achievements in the legal profession. The Fellows support the research work of the American Bar Foundation through their annual contributions and sponsor seminars and events of direct relevance to leaders of the legal profession.

4 American Bar Foundation Report of the Director

This is a time of enormous challenge for the legal profession and the system of justice. The American Bar Foundation is conducting research that directly addresses many of these challenges. The global financial crisis that began in 2008 had dramatic short-term effects on several sectors of the legal profession, from law schools to law firms to the fiscal strength of our courts. Scholars of the legal profession are debating what the long-term effects of the economic shock will be. Does it portend a radical restructuring of law partnerships or the careers of lawyers? Do these changes have greater effects on some groups than others, such as minority lawyers or women? Will the changes in the legal marketplace force a rethinking of legal education or how it is financed? As the leading source of research on the legal profession, the ABF is informing the debates around these important questions. The ABF’s After the JD Project is tracking the professional lives of a large national sample of lawyers who passed the bar in the year 2000. After conducting interviews with this group in 2003 and 2007, the project has secured funding for a third wave of interviews in 2012. The next set of interviews will reveal the effects of changes in the profession on this cohort of lawyers, and will allow unprecedented comparisons across race and ethnicity, gender, law school, and geographic location. ABF projects are examining the changing shape of public interest law practice, a sector which faces increasing financial pressures due to changes in fee-shifting rules, limitations on supported activities, and problems of attorney frustration and burnout. A new research initiative on access to justice promises to offer insights into both the supply of and demand for legal services for Americans across the income spectrum. ABF research continues to shape debates about the future of legal education. From in-depth studies of how law school shapes the thinking of law students, to research on what law graduates found valuable in legal education after they began practice, to studies of whether women and minority law professors felt fairly treated in the law school tenure process, ABF research is making a unique contribution to the dialogue about changes in the legal academy. In these and other areas of the ABF research program, the hallmark of ABF research is independence, rigor, and relevance. Work of such quality would not be possible without the longstanding support of the American Bar Endowment and the Fellows of the American Bar Foundation. Their support has allowed us to recruit and retain the world’s leading faculty conducting advanced research on law. Our fellowship programs for undergraduate and graduate students is passing on the heritage of innovative research to new generations of scholars. I hope the pages that follow capture some of the excitement and significance of the research being conducted at the American Bar Foundation. We feel privileged to be conducting research that offers new understandings of law and how it might be shaped to better serve the interests of justice.

2010 Annual Report 5 Highlights

At this year’s Law and Society Meetings, held in May in Chicago, ABF scholars received significant recognition. ABF Research Professor Shari Seidman Diamond received the Harry Kalven, Jr. Prize from the Law and Society Association for “empirical scholarship that has contributed most effectively to the advancement of research in law and society.” Diamond is a widely recognized expert in law and psychology who has conducted pathbreaking research on juries. The awards ceremony held another ABF highlight, as the keynote speaker was Mariano-Florentino (Tino) Cuellar, a Stanford Law professor who was on leave as a Special Assistant to the President for Justice Left to right: Law and Society Association keynote speaker Stanford Law Professor and Regulatory Policy, White House Domestic Policy and ABF SRDF alumnus Tino Cuellar, ABF Research Professor Shari S.

Cuellar was a Montgomery Summer Research Winner, Kalven Prize, Law and Society Association, Former ABF Research Associate Heather Schoenfeld, Winner, Dissertation Prize, Law and Society Association, Law Diversity Fellow at the ABF in 1992. After finishing his and Society Association President Laura Gomez, ABF Director Robert Nelson. fellowship, Cuellar completed a J.D. at Yale and Ph.D. from Stanford, before joining the Stanford law faculty. At the same meetings a series of panels celebrated the scholarly accomplishments of ABF Research Professor John P. Heinz upon his taking emeritus status. Heinz, former Director of the ABF, is one of the world’s foremost experts on the legal profession. He and co-author Edward O. Laumann received the Kalven Prize in 1987 in recognition of their highly influential book, Chicago Lawyers . The panels took up major themes of Heinz’s research: lawyers and networks of power, status and inequality within the legal profession, markets and organizations in legal services, and the autonomy of lawyers. Selected papers will be published in a special issue of the ABF’s ABF Research Professor Terry Halliday scholarly journal, Law & Social Inquiry . The ABF’s Center on Law and Globalization (a joint effort with the University of Illinois College of Law) continues to see notable accomplishments and events. ABF Research Professor Terence Halliday and co-author Bruce Carruthers received three awards for their book Bankrupt: Global Lawmaking and Systemic Financial Crisis (Stanford 2009)—from three different sections of the American Sociological Association (Sociology of Law, Economic Sociology, and Global and Transnational Sociology). The Center organized two high level conferences: in March the Center held a conference in Washington, D.C. at the headquarters of the International Monetary Fund on “Measuring Law.” It brought together legal staff from international and financial institutions with academic

In May in Geneva, Switzerland, the Center convened a conference on public-private relationships in health, development, and trade. Center leaders Halliday and John Hagan each were awarded grants from the National Science Foundation on projects dealing respectively with criminal defense lawyers in China and regime-sponsored violence in pre- and post-invasion Iraq. The ABF initiated a new program of research on access to justice to be headed by Senior Research Social Scientist Rebecca Sandefur, formerly of Stanford University. Sandefur and ABF colleagues Robert Nelson and Laura Beth Nielsen have met with the leadership of the Legal Services Corporation ABF Director Emeritus and Dean of Southwestern and state level court administrators to plan a series Law School Bryant Garth speaks about his book, Asian Legal Revivals, at the Fellows Research Seminar in of possible projects.

ABF Research Professor Elizabeth Mertz organized a conference on “Legal Education Reform after Carnegie-Bringing Law-in-Action into the Law School Classroom,” co-sponsored by the ABF and held at the University of Wisconsin Law School in October. The conference brought together legal educators and social scientists who are introducing curricular innovations and attempting to measure their effectiveness in law school and beyond.

Silkenat. In 2010 the ABF continued to expand its research program in diversity and law. Director Robert Nelson gave presentations from the After the JD project on the future of diversity in the legal profession to the Business Breakfast of the Fellows in San Francisco in August and before groups in Chicago, , Columbia, Missouri, Washington, D.C., and Omaha. The ABF hosted four undergraduates in the Montgomery Summer Research Diversity Fellowship

The ABF had a record breaking year for obtaining new external grants, bringing in over $857,000 in new grants. The ABF again proved successful in all grant submissions to the National Science Foundation. The last 15 ABF proposals to NSF have been funded, resulting in a success rate over the last 5 years of more than 90% compared to the current overall NSF funding rate of 23%. ABF scholars continue to gain national and international recognition. In addition to the awards mentioned above, John Hagan was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, was elected President of the (effective in 2013), Elizabeth Mertz was awarded a Fellowship in Princeton University’s Law and Public Affairs Program, and former Research Professor Austan Goolsbee was appointed Chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers.

8 American Bar Foundation The Research Program

The core of the ABF research program consists of thirty or more research projects that have been submitted by the research faculty for approval by the Board of the ABF as meeting our mandate to produce research that advances the understanding and potential improvement of law, legal institutions, and legal processes. Proposals are reviewed by an internal research committee composed of the members of the research faculty, an external committee of distinguished scholars from other universities (the Wheeler Committee), the research committee of the Board, and finally by the Board as a whole. Brief descriptions of individual projects can be found under the listings of the research faculty. The following describes projects by broad topical area.

The Legal Profession and Legal Education There is more empirical expertise on the legal profession at the ABF than there is in any other scholarly institution. Emeritus Research Professor John Heinz and colleagues are studying the roles of lawyers in national politics. Elizabeth Mertz is studying the legal academy and recently published a report and article detailing striking differences in perceptions of the fairness of the tenure review process between women, minorities, and white men. John Hagan and continue to collect experimental data and publish Gabriele Plickert’s comparative research on lawyers results on the effect that law can have in conflict and in the U.S. and Germany reveal significant differences bargaining situations, not through sanctions, but by in the effect of gender on lawyers’ careers in these getting parties to focus on particular outcomes.

the roles that lawyers (and more broadly the “legal complex”) can play in the operation of democratic institutions across different societies. After publishing two books from the project, they recently learned that their third book—on British post-colonies—has been accepted for publication. Historian and Research Professor Victoria Woeste has been examining another face of law and democracy in her historical analysis of the trial of Henry Ford for group libel against a leading Jewish attorney in the 1920’s. The book has been accepted for publication by Stanford University Press .

Law and Health Three ABF projects are making highly original contributions to the burgeoning intersection of law and medicine. Susan Shapiro and her research team were able to gain extraordinary access to stroke and intensive care units in a research hospital. They were able to observe over two hundred cases in which families struggled with decisions about the medical treatment of a loved one unable to make decisions for themselves.

sectarian strong state repression was followed by a weak state in which fears about safety, protection, and resource needs in turn caused extensive sectarian looting and violent crime by gangs and militias. The combination of data sets available for this research allows a unique “new war” case study of the sectarian and economic consequences of violent crime in a kind of strong to weak state transition that may be increasingly replacing older forms of conflict. Parental Incarceration and Intergenerational Social Exclusion: “The Long Arm of the Law” (with Holly Foster) This study is designed to better understand the difference that parental incarceration makes in the life of an adolescent. American incarceration is four times larger than in the 1970s, six to ten times greater than in European and Scandinavian countries, and the majority of Americans who are imprisoned are parents. Working with data collected from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health, which includes information from over 2000 sons and daughters of fathers who have spent time in jail or prison during the peak growth years of incarceration in this country, the project will trace the impact of this parental imprisonment on their sons and daughters from mid- adolescence to early adulthood. A challenge of this project is to deepen and broaden understanding of intergenerational consequences of incarcerating parents. Early Post-Law School Careers of Women and Men Lawyers in U.S. and German Cities (with Gabriele Plickert, Patricia Parker, and Hans Merkens) This research is expanding a national U.S. study of lawyers (the American Bar Foundation’s After the JD study) to include two cities in Germany—Frankfurt and Berlin. This will be a comparative study of the entry and advancement of women and men lawyers in the business and political capitals of these two countries. The project extends ongoing comparative research on the legal profession in the U.S. and Canada to Germany.

Terence Halliday Ph.D., Sociology, University of Chicago Research Interests: the globalization of law in markets and politics. The research on law and markets focuses on international trade law, with special reference to the ways in which international trade organizations, such as UNCITRAL, UNIDROIT, and the Hague Conference on Private International Law, create global norms in such diverse areas as corporate bankruptcy law, maritime law and secured transactions. The research on globalization and politics, part of an international research collaborative, analyzes the support or resistance of the legal complex (e.g., lawyers, judges, prosecutors, law faculty) to the advance of political liberalism worldwide. A new project, authorized in 2008, studies the ability of China’s criminal defense lawyers to protect basic legal freedoms. Current ABF Projects Global Norm-Making: UNCITRAL, International Organizations and Corporate Insolvency Regimes (with Susan Block-Lieb) This book project provides an empirically-based analysis of how global norms are produced for international trade law, which states or non-state organizations are the most influential shapers of those norms, and the politics of producing a global consensus. The book focuses on the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law and three recent products: the Legislative Guide on Insolvency; the Legislative Guide on Secured Transactions; and the Convention on Carriage of Goods by Sea (Rotterdam Rules). The Legal Complex and Struggles for Political Liberalism (with Lucien Karpik and Malcolm Feeley) This project investigates how lawyers and judges contribute to political liberalism. Together the ABF and the National Science Foundation have supported the second and third rounds of international collaborations on ways that the legal complex—legally-trained professions—fight for the moderate

14 American Bar Foundation state, civil society, and basic legal freedoms. In the second volume, Fighting for Political Liberalism , sixteen experts show how the struggle has unfolded in thirteen countries across Asia, North America, Latin America, the Middle East, and Europe. In the third volume, Fortunes and Misfortunes of Political Liberalism: The Legal Complex in the British Post-Colonies , scholars weigh the trajectories of countries in South Asia (Pakistan, India, Sri Lanka), Africa (Sudan, Malawi, Zambia, Namibia) and South East Asia (Malaysia, Singapore). Current work continues on questions about the politics of the legal complex and religion, gender, and public dramaturgy. Lawyers in the Pursuit of Basic Legal Rights: Criminal Defense in China (with Sida Liu) This project undertakes a major empirical study on criminal defense lawyers and political liberalism in China using a combination of social science methods, including interviews, media analysis, archival research, and online ethnography.

James J. Heckman Ph.D., Economics, Princeton University Joint Appointment: Henry Shultz Distinguished Service Professor, Department of Economics and the College, University of Chicago Research Interests: the development of a scientific basis for economic policy evaluation, using a body of new econometric tools that address this issue. Current research focuses on the economics of human development and building theoretical and empirical models of human capacity formation, with an emphasis on the role of the family in producing capacities and the effects of capacities on education, wages, health, crime, and other dimensions of lifetime achievement. Current ABF Project: Capabilities and Self-control: Implications for Crime, Health and the Law This project researches the economics and psychology of capabilities with an emphasis on self-control with a particular focus on the effects of self-control on crime and health. The research investigates how these capabilities are produced and the consequences of these capabilities for the law.

Carol A. Heimer Ph.D., Sociology, University of Chicago Joint Appointment: Professor of Sociology, Northwestern University Research Interests: the relationship between law and other systems of rules and norms. Research has focused especially on how people work with rules in medical settings, including HIV clinics and neonatal intensive care units. The research asks what people typically do when attempts to follow one set of rules are stymied by obligations to comply with another and how medical workers who are not trained in law modify their use of rules as their environment becomes more legalized. Current ABF Project: The Legal Transformation of Medicine: How Rules Work in the International World of HIV/AIDS The Legal Transformation of Medicine is a comparative study of the role of law in medicine. In recent years, American medicine has been “legalized” as relatively informal regulation by professional peers has been supplanted by an increasingly formal regulatory system. By no means confined to the US, this rule-based regulation has diffused widely, sometimes freely adopted by medical workers eager for the legitimacy conferred by American medical science, at other times imposed on foreign scientific and clinical colleagues by American funding agencies and research organizations. The book is grounded in ethnographic work and interviews on the use of rules (broadly conceived) in HIV/AIDS clinics in the US, Uganda, South Africa, and Thailand.

John P. Heinz Research Professor Emeritus; LL.B., Yale University Research Interests: the social structure of the legal profession, the political activity of lawyers, and interest group politics. Current ABF Project Networks Among Lawyers Active in National Policymaking (with Ann Southworth and Anthony Paik) This study examines the networks of relationships among lawyers engaged in a broad range of political issues, including abortion, gun control, judicial selection, eminent domain, bankruptcy, medical malpractice, flag desecration, and class actions. Research is charting the lines of division among these lawyers, and seeks to identify those who cross political boundaries.

Bonnie Honig Ph.D., Political Science, Joint Appointment: Sarah Rebecca Roland Chair, Political Science, Northwestern University Research Interests: legal theory, philosophy of law, democratic theory. Current ABF Project Antigone, Interrupted: On the Role of a Classic Text in Law, Philosophy and Democratic Theory Sophocles’ Antigone is routinely taught in law school and political science department courses on civil disobedience. The story of a woman’s demand to bury her brother, Antigone has been treated as emblematic of principled disobedience or self-sacrifice for at least 200 years in the west and in post-colonial contexts as well. But what are we teaching when we teach this text? This project looks at the multiple established and possible future meanings of the original play, situating it in historical context in fifth-century Athens and also in contemporary democratic and legal theory.

Steven D. Levitt (on leave, 2010) Ph.D., Economics, Massachusetts Institute of Technology Joint Appointment: William B. Ogden Distinguished Service Professor of Economics, University of Chicago Research Interests: crime, the criminal justice system, and corruption, and a wide variety of issues related to racial disparity and education. Current ABF Project Measuring the Impact of Crack Cocaine (with Roland Fryer) This project is developing a statistical index to measure the extent to which crack cocaine can account for the adverse trends in many indicators of African American progress in major urban areas during the 1990s. It will shed light on important issues related to public policy and law. Among these issues are the extent to which the important social costs of crack are due primarily to the ingestion of crack per se , or rather to the prohibition of crack and the accompanying enforcement of the law.

16 American Bar Foundation Elizabeth Mertz (on leave, 2010) Ph.D., Anthropology, Duke University; J.D., Northwestern University School of Law Joint Appointment: John and Rylla Bosshard Professor of Law, University of Wisconsin Research Interests: language and law, legal education, and how law translates the world around it. Examination of these questions through the methods of anthropology and linguistics. Current ABF Project Senior Status in the Legal Academy (with Katherine Barnes) This project studies the experiences of post-tenure law professors in the U.S. legal academy. It began with a national survey; follow-up interviews have been performed with 100 of the survey respondents. Although they have not generally been the focus of research on law schools, it is the tenured law faculties who in large part decide the shape and culture of the law schools that produce our country’s lawyers, judges—and many of its politicians. This study provides the first in-depth empirical information we have on their attitudes and experiences.

Janice Nadler Ph.D., Social Psychology, University of Illinois; J.D. Boalt Hall School of Law, University of California, Berkeley Research Interests: social psychology and law, with focuses on compliance with the law; the psychology of property; perceptions of responsibility and fairness; and negotiation and conflict. Current ABF Projects Condemn-Nation: The Social Psychological Foundations of the Kelo Backlash (with Shari Diamond) This project focuses on the rift between the public’s expectations about the circumstances under which government should be permitted to take private property, on the one hand, and eminent domain law, on the other. The goal of the study is to provide an initial map of common sense perceptions of justice regarding takings. Expressive Law: Testing the Effects of Third-Party Recommendations on Behavior in Coordination Games (with Richard McAdams) This project seeks to understand empirically the effects that law has apart from sanctions that it imposes. The project tests experimentally the theory that law influences behavior in coordination games with multiple equilibria by providing a focal point for behavior.

Robert L. Nelson ABF Director; MacCrate Research Chair in the Legal Profession; Ph.D., Sociology, Northwestern University; J.D., Northwestern University School of Law Joint Appointment: Professor of Sociology and Law, Northwestern University Research Interests: the social organization of law practice and the relationship between law and social inequality. Research has addressed transformations in the legal profession, the role of corporate counsel, gender inequality, and employment discrimination. Current ABF Projects After the JD (with Ronit Dinovitzer, Bryant Garth, Gabriele Plickert, and Joyce Sterling) The After the JD (AJD) project is an empirical study of a nationally representative cohort of almost 5,000 new lawyers. The AJD study design is longitudinal, following the careers of new lawyers over the first ten years following law school graduation; the first cohort of lawyers was surveyed in 2002-03,

2010 Annual Report 17 Research Faculty Research Professors

the second in 2007-08, and the third contact is planned for 2012. While a main emphasis of the study is to broadly chart the career outcomes of these lawyers, a further emphasis of this study is to analyze the structure of the legal profession by investigating the sorting process through which lawyers come to occupy various positions within the profession. By analyzing the various forms of capital—human, social and symbolic—accumulated by lawyers over their life course, After the JD will bring to light the forms of capital that are valued and rewarded within the legal profession, the social and professional contexts that lead to differential valuations, and how these processes of opportunity and reward may be changing over time.

Nelson, John Donohue III, Peter Siegelman, and Ryon Lancaster) This archival, quantitative, and qualitative research project is a comprehensive examination of employment civil rights claiming behavior in the EEOC and in the Federal Courts.

Dylan C. Penningroth Ph.D., History, Johns Hopkins University Joint Appointment: Associate Professor of History, Northwestern University Research Interests: African American history, comparative histories of slavery and emancipation, and socio-legal history, with a particular focus on family relations, the rise of the independent black church, migration, the interaction between legal categories and popular conceptions such as respectability, race, and “slavish origins”; the cultural, social, and legal legacy of slavery in colonial Ghana and the United States.

18 American Bar Foundation Current ABF Project Local Courts and African American Life, 1865-1930 This study focuses on husband-wife relations, the rise of the independent black church, migration, and the interaction between legal categories and popular conceptions such as respectability and race, examining local court records as both a source of information and a core subject of inquiry. By focusing on cases where plaintiff and defendant were both black, the project seeks to shift emphasis beyond the traditional framework of black/white race relations, while exploring the specific, often contradictory roles that racial thinking played.

Susan P. Shapiro Ph.D., Sociology, Yale University Research Interests: the social construction, social organization, and social control of fiduciary, trust, and principal-agency relationships. Research has examined white-collar crime, ethics, conflict of interest, the professions, the news media, and medical decision making. Current ABF Project Surrogate Decision Making at the End of Life: An Observational Study This observational study of two intensive care units investigates how surrogate decision makers make medical decisions for patients unable to speak for themselves. It also examines the role of law at the bedside, in general, and that of advance directives, in particular.

Christopher L. Tomlins (on leave, 2010) Ph.D., American History, Johns Hopkins University; University of California-Irvine, School of Law; American Bar Foundation Research Professor Research Interests: Anglo-American legal history across a broad front, from the “early modern” era (the beginning of the sixteenth century) into the later twentieth century. Recent work gathers together several related fields of inquiry—the history of colonizing; the historical relationship between migration, labor force creation and law; the history of the relation of master and servant (labor and employment law), of the legal structure of the employment relationship, and of slavery; and the history of civic identity. Current research includes projects on the theory and method of legal history—the history of the treatise; the course of legal history “after” critical legal history; the conceptualization of legal history as “a structural history of national legal practices”; and the intersection between legal history and the critical theory of Walter Benjamin.

Victoria Saker Woeste (on leave 2010) Ph.D., Jurisprudence and Social Policy, University of California, Berkeley; Visiting Professor of Law and American Studies, Indiana University-Indianapolis Research Interests: the direction and scope of change in 20th century U.S. legal history, particularly in the fields of regulation and political economy. Current ABF Project Henry Ford’s War: Law, Antisemitism, and Speech in the Tribal 1920s This project examines the emergence of the concept of group libel in modern American law. When Henry Ford’s antisemitic newspaper explicitly demonized American Jews and denied the legitimacy of their claims to equality and citizenship, ambivalent Jewish civil rights lawyers and religious leaders were divided over the utility of litigation as a tool for addressing discrimination in its social (as opposed to legal) forms.

Bernadette Atuahene JD, Yale Law School; M.P.A., Harvard University Joint Appointment: Assistant Professor, Chicago-Kent College of Law Research Interests: law and international development, particularly the dispossession and restitution of property rights in the developing world. Research has examined the challenges faced by transitional democracies where past property dispossession is a prominent political and moral issue. Current Research Project: The Effects of Land Restitution in South Africa: A Qualitative Study Under the South African Restitution of Land Rights Act (LRA), only those dispossessed of a “right in land after 1913 as a result of a racially discriminatory law or practice” are eligible to receive compensation. During eight months in the field over 150 semi-structured interviews have been conducted with urban people who were evicted from their land by the Apartheid government and who were compensated by the new political dispensation through the LRA. South Africa has two populations that are valuable for this study—beneficiaries that received compensation in the form of “reparations” (compensation without choice) and “restoration” (compensation with choice). The recently collected interview data will be used to investigate the difference between reparations and restoration as well as other important hypotheses.

The Foundation and the Association might find overlap between an existing ABF research project and an ABA project or initiative. In these cases, the Liaison Research Services Program can develop a liaison relationship between Foundation Research Fellows and ABA entities. Research Professors may provide general expertise or specific data that have been collected from previous or current research projects, to inform the work of an ABA entity. • Research Advice. The Foundation is in a unique position to consult with ABA entities on how best to structure a research initiative. The Foundation can provide general guidance, review survey instruments, help to find appropriate academics to work on a research project, and consult on results.

The Foundation and the Association have a unique relationship that informs each organization’s efforts to enhance the public’s understanding of the law, legal institutions and legal processes. Through the Liaison Research Services Program, the Foundation collaborates with the Association and its entities in meaningful ways, thus bringing the expertise of the leading institution for the empirical study of the law to bear on the myriad programs, initiatives and activities of the ABA. From participating in initiatives organized by the ABA Presidents to working with Sections, Divisions and Committees on unique research projects, the research of the American Bar Foundation informs the organized bar, the legal community, and the public.

Barbara Adell Curran October 28, 1928 – August 25, 2010 Research Professor and Associate Executive Director Emerita American Bar Foundation

On August 25, 2010, Barbara Adell Curran, whose association with the American Bar Foundation spanned five decades, passed away at the age of 82. Curran, who earned a J.D. from the University of Connecticut School of Law in 1953 and a LL. M. from Yale University in 1961, was hired by ABF as staff attorney in 1961. In the course of her career at ABF, Curran conducted research in the areas of consumer credit legislation, legal services for the poor, legal needs of the public, and gender bias in the courts. From 1971 to 1977 Curran directed a comprehensive national study on the legal needs of the public. The study culminated in Curran’s book, The Legal Needs of the Public (1977), which remains widely cited more than thirty years after its publication. In 1976 she was appointed as ABF’s first female Associate Executive Director, a position she held until 1987. Curran also carried forward one of ABF’s signature projects, The Lawyer Statistical Report (1985, 1991, 1995, 2000, 2005, with Clara Carson), a detailed demographic and geographic snapshot of the U.S. legal profession, based on information supplied by Martindale-Hubbell. Barbara Curran was a Life Patron Fellow of the American Bar Foundation.
