Brian Mooney, B.A., J.D., Ph.D.
master teacher of Social Sciences and faculty coordinator for Anthropology, Sociology, and
International Studies, Paul McGhee Division
Brian Mooney’s research and teaching in Anthropology at McGhee draws from his experience both in ethnographic research in anthropology and from his professional experience as a lawyer. He practiced law from 1984 to 1988 for the firm of Kelley Drye & Warren which at that time was representing the Union Carbide Corporation in the litigation following the 1984 Bhopal Gas Disaster, said to be the world’s worst industrial disaster. That experience rekindled his interest in Anthropology - his undergraduate major - and motivated a radical change of direction as he returned to graduate school to pursue a Ph.D. in Cultural Anthropology, focusing on the subfield of legal anthropology.
