Phanor James Eder was born in Palmira, Colombia on December 11, 1880. He was the son of Santiago M. Eder, a lawyer and industrial pioneer in the Cauca Valley and Lizzie Benjamin, of London.

Phanor Eder completed his studies in public and private schools in London, New York and Belgium. He received his bachelor's degree from City College of New York in 1900 and graduated from Harvard Law School in 1903. That same year he was named special student assigned to the faculty at the University of Liege in Belgium, from 1903 to 1904.

He specialized in legal work associated with Latin America, concentrating on mining laws of Colombia. He devoted most of his work to his principal client, the South America Gold and Platinum Company, later the International Mining Company.

Mr. Eder was a former Colombian ad honorem vice-consul in New York in 1904. During World War I, he served as legal advisor to the Mercantile Bank of the Americas. From 1917 to 1922 he also served as secretary and vice-president of the Mercantile Bank of the Americas.

In 1947 Dr. Eder opened the legal program of the Inter-American Law Institute at New York University, of which he was adjunct professor of law.

In 1952, he was honored by the Institute for realizing three of his comparative law projects: the transformation of the American Foreign Law Association into a national body recognized by UNESCO as the official United States organization in comparative law; the establishment of the Inter-American Law Institute as a permanent feature of the New York University Law Center and the founding of the American Journal of Comparative Law.

He was the author of Colombia, published in 1913; Comparative Survey of Anglo-American and Latin American Law, 1950; a book about his father published in Spanish in Colombia, Santiago M. Eder, El Fundador, and other works. Phanor J. Eder died at the age of 90 on March 5, 1971 in New York City while writing his memoirs.

PHANOR J. EDER

Phanor J. Eder s'est éteint, à plus de 90 ans, au terme d'une vie remplie d'honneurs, de travaux et d'entreprises généreuses. Il reste pour nous l'exemple d'un comparatiste convaincu, qui pendant de longues années s'est employé à rapprocher leles Common Lawyers et les juristes des systèmes romanistes ; et cette ?uvre, au cours de laquelle il collabora avec la Société de législation comparée, lui a valu la reconnaissance de tous ceux qui sont attachés au rapprochement et à la meilleure compréhension des droits.

Il était né (faut-il voir là un signe de prédestination?) en Amérique latine, en Colombie, le 11 décembre 1880, de parents américains, et il lit ses études à la fois aux Etats-Unis, en Angleterre et en Belgique. Dès sa constitution, en 1908, il s'associa activement aux travaux du Comparative Law Bureau créé par l'American Bar Association et ne cessa d'affirmer la nécessité, pour les juristes des Etats-Unis, de s'informer des systèmes étrangers et surtout de celui des pays ibéro-américains. Son cabinet, constitué au lendemain de la première guerre mondiale à New York, et qui devait jouir d'une réputation considérable, était spécialisé dans le droit de l'Amérique latine.

Phanor Eder fut tout naturellement un des fondateurs, en 1924, de l'American Foreign Law Association dont il devint président en 1934. Lorsqu'après la seconde guerre le besoin se fit sentir de développer davantage la connaissance des droits étrangers parmi les juristes américains, on lui :demanda de reprendre la présidence de cette Association, à la tête de laquelle il se trouva placé de nouveau de 1948 à 1952. Il lui donna une extension et un rayonnement considérables et s'employa à éétablir des liens avec les principaux centres d'études du droit comparé des divers pays ; c'est ainsi qu'il entra en rapport avec la Société de législation comparée, pour qui il recruta de nombreux membres américains tandis qu'il fournissait dedes informations, des notes et des contributions diverses à notre Revue. C'est lui encore qui, avec les professeurs Yntema et J. Hazard, entreprit de fonder The American Journal of Comparative Law. Pour en assurer la publication fut constituée en 1951 l'American Association for the Comparative Study of Law, sous les auspices de qui paraît toujours ce remarquable Journal, dont le premier rédacteur en chef devait être Hessel E. Yntema, tandis que Phanor Eder devenait président de la nouvelle Association.
