Privacy Studies Podcast, season 2022, episode 16

Yehonatan Elazar-DeMota is a rabbi and legal historian who specializes on the legal consciousness of the Portuguese Nation, an early modern Sephardic Jewish Community who came to live throughout the Western World in the wake of 1492. He is currently a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Antwerp, Belgium. In this interview, we discuss his book _Nação Legal Consciousness and its Contribution to the Seventeenth-Century Dutch Republic Debate on Slavery and the Slave Trade_, where he explores the contributions of the Sephardim to legal-political discussions on ius naturae et gentium in early modern Amsterdam.
