Whewell Professorship of International Law
TAU Law proudly congratulates Prof. Eyal Benvenisti on his appointment to the Whewell Professorship of International Law, a distinguished professorship in the University of Cambridge.
Established in 1868, the Professorship was established by the will of the 19th-century scientist and moral philosopher William Whewell, with a view of devising "such measures as may tend to diminish the causes of war and finally to extinguish war between nations".
Prof. Benvenisti earned his LL. B. (1984) at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and completed his graduate work in the United States, where he received his LL.M. (1988) and J.S.D. (1990) from Yale Law School. A scholar of international, constitutional, and administrative law, Prof. Benvenisti sits on the editorial boards of the American Journal of International Law and International Law in Domestic Courts, and is an associate member of the Institut de Droit International.
In recognition of his outstanding achievements in the area of International Law, Prof. Benvenisti will be joining prominent incumbents including John Westlake, Arnold McNair, Sir Hersch Lauterpacht, Sir Robert Jennings, and James Crawford.
Our warmest congratulations!
