Amitai Aviram studies mechanisms of norm enforcement in private legal systems (including business associations) and the role of law in manipulating perceptions, using analytic tools from the field of law & economics (in particular behavioral economics). Prior to joining the Illinois faculty, he taught at Florida State University and George Mason University, and was a John M. Olin Scholar of Law and Economics at the University of Chicago. Before entering academia, Professor Aviram served at the Israeli Antitrust Authority and at the law firm of Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz. He was also an officer in the Israeli Judge Advocate General (JAG) Corps. In that capacity, he was involved in the Israeli-Palestinian peace negotiations. Professor Aviram was educated at the University of Chicago Law School (J.S.D., 2003; LL.M., 2000) and Tel-Aviv University School of Law (LL.B., 1995). Website
