B.A. Franklin & Marshall College Dean Canova’s research crosses the disciplines of law, public finance, economics and history. Since the 1980s, he has written critically about the deregulation of banking and finance. As a legislative aide to the late U.S. Senator Paul Tsongas, he analyzed the meltdown of Continental Illinois and anticipated the collapse of the savings & loan industry. In the 1990s, prior to the Asian currency contagion, he argued against the liberalization of capital accounts, and then warned of a crisis in the bubble economy and a sharp decline in dollar-denominated assets. He continues to advocate for well regulated financial markets and a return to Greatest Generation principles of functional finance, along with the use of advanced information technologies to make regulation more effective and the global financial architecture more transparent. Canova practiced law in New York City with Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher. He has taught previously at the University of Miami School of Law, the University of Arizona College of Law, and the University of New Mexico School of Law where he was first granted tenure. Dean Canova has presented his research at leading universities throughout the United States, Canada, Mexico, Argentina, Colombia, Jamaica, the Bahamas, Denmark, Sweden, and Israel. In 2004, he helped launch Chapman University’s Center for Global Trade & Development and served as its first director from 2004 to 2007. Dean Canova received his B.A. in Government from Franklin & Marshall College and J.D. degree from the Georgetown University Law Center where he served as lead articles editor of the Georgetown Immigration Law Journal. He received a master’s diploma in graduate legal studies from the University of Stockholm Faculty of Law where he was a Swedish Institute Visiting Scholar and Cassel Foundation Scholar.
