Desan is an American academic. She is the Leo Gottlieb Professor of Law at the Harvard Law School and, with Sven Beckert, co-director of the Program on the Study of Capitalism at Harvard University.[1] EducationDesan graduated in 1981 from Princeton University majoring in Religion. She earned her Master of Arts in Law and Diplomacy in 1987 from Yale Law School and the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy. After graduation, she worked in the U.S. Office of the Solicitor General.[1] She clerked for Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer.[2] Field of interestHer stated research focus is on the exploration of money as a "legal and political project, one that configures the market it sets out to measure." Her work is explicitly questions Mainstream economics, arguing that money is not a "neutral instrument" and that markets are not "autonomous phenomena."[1] ActivismWhile in Brookline, Massachusetts, Desan served for 10 years on a town committee that researched and drafted legislation promoting campaign finance reform and supervised that reform once it was enacted.[1] Desan co-signed the 2014 public statement by members of the faculty of Harvard Law School that condemned the "Sexual Harassment Policy and Procedures" imposed by the central university administration. The signees claimed that, though supportive of "an educational environment free from the sexual and other harassment that can diminish educational opportunity", the university's new sexual-harassment policy is "inconsistent with many of the most basic principles" taught in law school, pointing out the "absence of any adequate opportunity to discover the facts charged and to confront witnesses and present a defense at an adversary hearing", the "lodging of the functions of investigation, prosecution, fact-finding, and appellate review" liew in one office "rather than an entity that could be considered structurally impartial" and that there is no assurance of "adequate representation for the accused, particularly for students unable to afford representation."[3] Desan was also a co-signatory to the open letter addressed, on 4 October 2018, to the U.S. Senate that argued against the confirmation of Brett Kavanaugh as a Justice to the U.S. Supreme Court.[4] Works
