Inaugural Mark Tushnet Prize in Comparative Law

I am pleased to announce that the Executive Board of the Section of Comparative Law in the Association of American Law Schools has accepted my recommendation--in my capacity as the elected Chair of the Section--to create an annual award named after Mark Tushnet, the William Nelson Cromwell Professor of Law at Harvard University.

I was privileged to be Mark's student many years ago at Harvard Law School. I saw then as I see now how closely he reads the work of others, how intensely engaged he is in the field of public law, and how much of himself he invests in his students. 

More details on the award are available here.
