Marie Jauffret-Roustide

PHD, UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA AT BERKELEY

RESEARCH FELLOW, FRENCH NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF HEALTH AND MEDICAL RESEARCH, FRANCE

BA, DARTMOUTH COLLEGE

PHD, PARIS XI UNIVERSITY MA, SCIENCES PO, PARIS A SOCIO-LEGAL HISTORIAN OF THE EARLY MODERN German-speaking lands, with a special interest in law and religion, secularity and secularism, legal phenomenology and difference, and law and language. Her dissertation, “The Reformation Suits: Litigation as Constitution-Making in a German Imperial Court, 1521-1555” reconsiders the role of civil litigation in the early Reformation in Germany, long regarded as an instance of the instrumentalization of law by “old-faith” authorities against the Protestants. Ludin’s research shows how experimental uses of mundane, formulaic legal instruments of Roman law civil procedure fused with the legal culture and legal pluralism of the German lands, such that the litigation context became an unexpected proxy for the most pressing constitutional questions of the early Reformation.

JAUFFRET-ROUSTIDE IS THE LEADER OF AN international comparative research project on the history of a harm reduction between France and the United States. Her research focuses on drug policy and a harm-reduction paradigm; ethnicity and gender issues, laws and regulations; structural inequalities in health and social policies; and patient groups’ and users’ involvement in drug policy changes, including analyses of the biomedicalization process of addiction. As a Senior Baldy Fellow, she is analyzing three representative contemporary drug policy issues affecting both North America (specifically the United States) and partially Europe (France): the history of opioid substitutive treatments, the opioid overdose crisis, and the controversy on drug consumption rooms.
