David E. Weinstein II (born 1964) is an American economist. Since 1999, he has served as the Carl S. Shoup Professor of Japanese Economy at Columbia University. Before teaching at Columbia, Weinstein taught at University of Michigan and Harvard University. He also served on the Council of Economic Advisers from 1989 to 1990.[1]
He published an initial defense of J. Mark Ramseyer's controversial work that denied that comfort women were coerced into sexual labor for Japan. He described the work as "fact-based". After reading an analysis by historians of Ramseyer's work, he conceded that retraction could be appropriate.[2]
