Short Biography

 Hadar Dancig-Rosenberg is an Associate Professor and Associate Dean for Research at the Bar-Ilan University Faculty of Law (tenured 2016). She specializes in criminal law and procedure, and her areas of expertise include the philosophy of criminal law, non-adversarial criminal justice with a focus on institutional design of new criminal justice mechanisms, therapeutic jurisprudence, and the interface between criminal and constitutional law as well as criminal law and gender theories. She earned a Ph.D (with highest distinction) and LL.B. (Summa Cum Laude) from Bar-Ilan University and LL.M. (Summa Cum Laude) from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Her Ph.D dissertation discusses the criminal liability of an accomplice for unforeseen crimes committed by a co-principal in the course of committing a planned crime, drawing on insights from moral philosophy. After graduating Prof. Dancig-Rosenberg clerked for the State of Israel Attorney (Ret. Justice) Edna Arbel. Before joining Bar-Ilan she served as the academic director of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem Legal Clinic for Violence Against Women (2004-2009). She has been a Visiting Professor at UC Berkeley (2017-2018, summer 2020) and a Visiting Scholar at the Center for the Study of Law and Society and the Berkeley Institute for Jewish Law and Israel Studies, UC Berkeley Law School (2016-2018, summer 2019). Prof. Dancig-Rosenberg serves as a member of the Advisory Committee for the Israeli Minister of Justice on Criminal Procedure and Evidence Law and as a member of the Advisory Committee for the Israeli Minister of Justice on Formulating Measures to Protect the Public Against Cyberbullying. She has published in leading American and Israeli law journals and received numerous grants and awards, including the Cheshin Prize for Academic Excellence in Legal Research for young scholars (2014); the Cohn Prize for best article (2013); the Rector Prize for Outstanding Lecturer (2012) and the Feldman Prize for Academic Excellence and Community Involvement (2005). She has been recently awarded a research grant from the Center of Long-Term Cybersecurity at UC Berkeley for conducting an empirical study on the negative aspects of Facebook use by sexual assault survivors who have exposed their stories online, and another research grant as a co-PI from the Israeli Ministry of Science and Technology (in collaboration with the EU as part of Horizon 2020) for conducting an empirical study on violence against women migrants and refugees as part of an international consortium. She is currently also a co-PI of the first evaluation study of the community courts in Israel.
