Janka Deli is the Miller Empirical Fellow at the Miller Institute for Global Challenges and the Law at UC Berkeley School of Law and a Nonresident Academic Fellow at the Rock Center for Corporate Governance at Stanford Law School. Previously, she was the Gerhard Casper Fellow in the Rule of Law at the Stanford Center on Democracy, Development and the Rule of Law and a Stanford Data Science Scholar. Her research examines how legal institutions, particularly the rule of law, affect economic outcomes in developed economies, with a focus on financial markets, international trade, and corporate behavior. She explores whether economic forces shaped by investors, firms, and institutions such as the EU can constrain institutional decline where traditional legal safeguards fail. She holds a JSD and JSM from Stanford Law School and a JD (summa cum laude) from Pázmány Péter Catholic University, Budapest.
