Margaret K. Lewis, Professor at Seton Hall University School of Law

The Council on Foreign Relations elected Seton Hall University School of Law Professor Margaret K. Lewis to life membership. Lewis has dedicated her legal career to international law, human rights and criminal justice, specifically in China and Taiwan. Founded in 1921, the council is a nonprofit think tank specializing in U.S. foreign policy and international affairs. It has roughly 5,000 members. The council, which publishes Foreign Affairs, offers two forms of individual membership: term and life, both of which are "highly competitive and subject to nomination and then confirmation by current members," according to a release. Lewis previously was a term member. "I'm both thrilled and honored to be recognized by my peers in this august and dynamic body," said Lewis in a statement by Seton Hall Law. "As CFR approaches its hundredth year, it is perhaps more important than ever: clear-eyed analysis of international issues is crucial as the United States navigates the COVID-19 era." Kathleen M. Boozang, dean of Seton Hall Law, said in a statement, "We are immensely proud of Professor Margaret Lewis. This appointment affirms what we already know. She is among the most prominent leaders in international affairs working to tackle some of the most complex policy and governance matters—and here at Seton Hall Law she is hard at work educating the next generation of global leaders."
