Prof. dr. Jan Michiel Otto (1952) is professor of Law and Governance in Developing Countries and director of the Van Vollenhoven Institute for Law, Governance, and Development. He studied law at the University of Leiden and specialised in development administration at both Leiden and the Free University of Amsterdam.
Having worked for the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs and in various research assignments, he became director of the Van Vollenhoven Institute in 1983. In 1987 he defended a dissertation entitled Aan de voet van de piramide: overheidsinstellingen en platttelandsontwikkeling in Egypte, [At the foot of the pyramid, state institutions and rural development in Egypt.] Since, he has published extensively on various topics of law and administration in developing countries, including Indonesia, China, Egypt and South Africa. In recent years he has published among others on issues of 'good governance', as well as on comparative sharia and national law in the Muslim world.
Prof. Otto teaches a number of interdisciplinary courses on law, governance and development and the VVI provides training to professionals, a.o. of the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs. He has acted as project leader in research projects concerning Indonesian environmental law and land law, Indonesian courts, the Indonesian national human rights commission, law-making and legal transformation in China, implementation of law in China, law and traditional authority in South Africa, customary law and chiefs in Ghana, sharia and national law in twelve Muslim countries, legalization of land tenure as a means of alleviating rural poverty, and several others.
Professor Otto has occupied various positions within and outside the academic world. Presently he is member of the Board of Advisors of IDLO, the International Development Law Organization, in Rome. He also is a founding board member of the Centre for International Legal Cooperation (formerly the Dutch Council for Legal Cooperation with Indonesia), The Hague. Professor Otto is General Editor (with dr. Benjamin van Rooij, Leiden) of the Series on Law, Governance and Development, published by Amsterdam University Press.
