George received his PhD from the History Department in 2025. His work focuses on the economic, social, and legal histories of modern China and Japan. His current project is a transnational study of changing dispute resolution practices in 19th and early 20th century China, Taiwan, and Japan.
Prior to arriving at Yale, George received an Honours Bachelor of Arts in History and International Relations from Trinity College, University of Toronto and was a Shanghai Government Scholar at Fudan University in Shanghai. I then spent a year debating a variety of topics on a local Shanghai TV station.
For the 2018-2019 academic year, he served as a Legal History Fellow at the Law School.
