Fady Khoury

Dr. Fady Khoury is a legal scholar interested in public law, human rights law, constitutional design, post-conflict constitutionalism, political/legal sociology and legal history.

His current research focuses on multiple dimensions of constitutional design in deeply divided and post-conflict societies, exploring constitutional systems predicated on power-sharing and consociational arrangements, including the design and function of Apex/Constitutional Courts, the governance implications of different post-conflict arrangements (namely federalism and consociationalism) and, more generally, constitutionalist conceptions undergirding post-conflict arrangements.

In 2024 Fady was a post-doctoral fellow at the Edmond J. Safra Center of Ethics at Tel Aviv University, and in 2025 he is a post-doctoral fellow at the Minerva Center for Law Under Extreme Conditions at Haifa University’s Law Faculty. Fady completed his doctoral studies (S.J.D.) at Harvard Law School in 2023; his LL.M. at Harvard Law School in 2015; and his LL.B. at Haifa University in 2012. Until 2023, Fady worked as a civil rights attorney at Adalah—the Legal Center for Arab Minority Rights in Israel, and prior to his admission into the Israeli Bar Association, he clerked for the late Justice Saleem Jubran at the Israeli Supreme Court.
