Profile
Chunthailiu’s academic interests include Comparative Law and Constitutional Law, Legal Theory, Ethics, and Traditional Knowledge in the realm of Intellectual Property Law.
Her research centres around the idea of Asymmetric Federalism and its application to the cause of tribal/indigenous people.
For her PhD thesis, she is working on a comparative analysis of the constitutional status of the indigenous inhabitants of India and the United States of America from a federal perspective. In her LLM dissertation, she engaged with possible conceptual frameworks for Article 371(A) which gives special status to the State of Nagaland in the Indian Constitution and argued for it to be read as an instance of asymmetric federalism.
She chose to be a teacher simply because of the reason that she felt called to it and her belief in constantly learning and unlearning.
